Default Re: Interior Room

I'm 6'3" (6'4" with boots) and I get a little cramped when people sit behind me, but there's still plenty of space for people behind. I don't feel like I'm getting kneed in the back while driving. I'm used to sitting close to the steering wheel anyway since my MR2's steering wheel doesn't telescope like the Tacoma's does and I don't like when I feel like I have to stretch my leg to push in the clutch.

I've had 5 people, all adults, fit comfortably (okay, 4 if you include my little gripe). Ingress and egress are all easy for both the front and rear passengers. For extra cargo space the rear seats do fold down like Splicer said, but I don't recommend it because you have to sit up completely straight because it limits the adjustment of the seat back. I had a 3 hour drive of that and was pretty uncomfortable. But, if you're shorter, go for it.

A lot of people complain about the front seating position being on the floor, but if it were any higher, I'd have trouble seeing out of the windshield, and I'd likely hit my head on the headliner on rough roads. So, it's fine for me.
