Its not an opinion. 180 for a woman under 6 foot is obese. I'm talking about rolls held up by tree trunks.

Remember, fat weighs quite a bit less than muscle and takes much more volume.

I didn't use the trunk. It would be like being trapped in a suitcase.

Unfortunately for my own arguement, I asked a female friend about this and she concluded that it is difficult for women weighing 180 to be skinny under 6 foot tall, so basically any girl that weight would be fat unless she was freakishly tall. The girl I asked is 5'8" and weighs 150, so I guess I was wrong.

Holy shit.

I'm guessing you guys are lifters because no way a 270 lb obese man can fit in these seats.

These seats can fit someone of the right build up to 300lbs. I'm 6'2" and 250lbs and I fit in snug but I have very wide shoulders.

Obese and overweight aren't the same thing. 5'11'' at 180lbs is literally one pound over what's considered normal weight, according to your standard run of the mill BMI calculators. Actually, at that height you wouldn't be considered obese until you were 215+.

As far as the topic, can't say I have any experience in the toyobarus. However, when I was in high school we fit seven people into a Saturn SC2. Yeah, this.


Two in the front, as usual. Three sitting in the back. One laying across the three sitting in the back. And one in the trunk.

Although now that I think about it, it might have been 8, with a lap passenger in the front as well...

Dunno, we were crazy and stupid.

I can attest to something similar! My Camaro broke down on the way home from the movies and my friend and I hopped in my other friend's SL2 sedan. Seven people in that car, 30min drive home. Ugh.

My 6 ft. 380+ lb extremely obese dad fit in the passenger seat, and believe it or not, he said that he was comfortable. You couldn't see the seat, but he was comfortable. lol!
