How often do you have humanoids in the back seats?

Curious how the back seat area get used in other people's FRSs? I can count with one hand the number of times anyone has been subjected to the rear seating.

Another question if I may?....Where do you all find a mini-human to crawl back and clean the inside of the rear window?

I'm 6'1" and I've had another 6' tall person behind me while driving. My chest was almost touching the airbag

I've ended up having 3 or 4 people in the car at least twice a month, and everyone is honestly surprised that there's as much room as there is back there. 5' 4" girls don't take up much space, but I have had my 260 lb. friend sit back there on a quick trip. That wouldn't have lasted more than 15 minutes. I manage to clean the back windows by kneeling on the seats and using a tool that has a foot long arm with a microfiber pad on the end, but I am also 5' 6" and Asian, so that won't work fore everyone..

No one ever sits in the back of mine, and if they do its an uncomfortable situation for everyone because you have to move the passenger seat so far forward that both peoples legs are numbs by the end of the 5 min drive to mcdonalds.

Grandson has been back there maybe 6 times. The tall one (5' 10") gets the front and the little one (4') gets the back. The resulting Battle of the Seat Adjuster will go down in family history.
My daughter rode back there once for about 15 minutes. She says she will walk next time.

Rear seat delete was a must for me. It pained me to look back and see those useless things. It's like they were taunting me...

Just a handful of times, but the people I gave rides to were certainly glad they were there!

I can pretty easily fit 3 people and do so at least once a month. I have fit 4 people once but would not want to again. For reference, I am 6'3" and my seat is as far back as possible. My girlfriend is ~5' which allows for a 3rd person without much trouble as long as they are below 6'.

About 2x per year at this point.

Fit 4 adults in on two occasions for 2+ hour drives, once to a party, once to a track day, me at 5'8", gf at 5'5", buddies at 5'8" and 6'2", I moved my seat forward about 2 notches, passenger footwell is deceptively spacious so the passenger can have the seat further forward than you think is comfy.

Like above, 3 isn't terrible if one person is short, 4 happens when everyone is like 'I'd rather be cramped than take another car'. And yes, I have in fact sat in the back for a 2 hour trip behind the driver.
