Back seat passengers

How many of you have a backseat passenger? I am 5'4" and I put my seat almost all the way back, so there isn't any foot room for a rear passenger. I know I am short but I can't imagine being taller and having people in back. Does anyone ever use the rear seats for people?

It can be done. I'm 6'0" and I had my 6'4" and 6'3" friend in the back before at the same time. Is it the most comfortable thing in the world? No but it can be done.

my kid, but she sits behind my wife, who is only 5'7" so she can move the seat forward a bit and there isn't an issue.

no one can sit behind me, I'm 6'1" and my seat is all the way back, so it's the storage area for my wifes purse.

I am 6ft tall and have my twin nearly 9yr old girls in the back daily. I have plenty of room and my seat isn't all the way back. What is the point of an airbag if you're so far back it doesn't touch you on impact?

I guess I have long legs and a short torso. My seat has about an inch and its touching the back seat. Good thing my son is in a car seat and he his feet don't hang down.

I've had four in mine once. Safe to say not very comfortable for the person behind me because I don't move my seat. But three isn't bad as long as they use the passenger side seats.

I've had three passengers before. The girlfriends of mine that were shortest (both 5'2") rode in the back and had no complaints other than the fact that they said it was kind of a hard ride.
