Seat recline

addlepated · 04-17-2005, 05:35 PM

How far back does the passenger seat recline when the back seats are laid down? I'm asking because we're considering a road trip this summer where we will have lots of cargo and will probably have to put the 60% side down. Will I be able to lean back more than just a slight bit?

Also, is there a diagram online of the cargo dimensions with and without the seats folded down in various configurations?

Not sure if this answers your question, but if you remove the front headrest, the seat will recline flat (well, a little bumpy, but more or less flat).

Depends how much cargo and whether it impedes the function of the front seat back but if you're talking about just a folded rear seat and trying to recline the front seat, it'll almost fully recline (like KTPhil said, you can remove the headrest if you need to lie almost flat)
