Highlander as a camping vehicle?

Hey highlander owners, can you tell me if the highlander would make a good camping vehicle? By that I mean would the back seats lie down flat? Also, are the seat backs strong enough to support 2 average size adults and would there be enough space for 2? Thanks.

The 3rd row seats fold completely flat. The 2nd row seats fold but they are not completely flat folded down.

The folded seats are designed to hold weight. I would assume that someone laying on them is fine.

No problem - as long as you ar 5'8" or less. I can sleep in the back with the seats folded down and the rear hatch closed - I just barely fit (I'm 5'8"). Also - you need a good pillow because there is a significant "roll" on the back of the 2nd row seat that will absolutely wrench your neck if you let it.
