Lol I’d feel bad for the kid who had to ride the middle seat in the Prius. I always hated riding in the back of my parents car after I got my height and my head was against the ceiling and my legs had to straddle the seat in front of me. But more recently in the back of a minivan and it was seriously comfortable.
Yup, and that’s why we got the minivan when number 3 came along. We were looking at wider SUVs when my brother upgraded his minivan and offered to sell us the old one.
It turns out, neither of us like driving the larger car, and I’m tall (6’3", 1.9m). If station wagons with a third row were still available (even a jump seat), we’d get it, but the only cars with a third row are super huge.
Now it’s time to upgrade and we’re looking again, and the middle seat is absolutely a consideration. We’ll probably get the minivan again because it’s so practical, but we’d both prefer to drive the Prius (which we’ll probably replace with an EV once prices come down). If there was hybrid alternative (better range for road trips; we frequently go well over 600 miles in a day) to the Tesla Model S (i.e. jump seats), I’d get that instead. But AFAIK, that doesn’t exist in sedans, and the only small-ish SUV is a Kia, and they have crappy reliability.
