I daily drive mine but there's rarely a passenger unless I'm taking a girl somewhere. I took the back seats out long ago.

I have had someone in the front seat maybe 10 times in the last 6 years. I think the rear seat has only been used once or twice in that time as well. I guess i'm a loner

when i was living in FL back in 04 right after i bought the car, my parents came down and my dad was in the front and my mom was in the back. she was 5'2" and that is the only time i ever heard her say there wasn't much leg room for her in a car. it was also funny hearing her comment on how the "arm rest" was getting warm. I had to think for a minute to figure out what she was referring to. The it occured to me. she was resting her arm on the top of the driveshaft tunnel um yeah thats not an arm rest and since theres a transmission, a driveshaft and some exhaust down there, it does get warm.

Hardly ever. Less chance of a door ding on that side. Hell in the past 2 years I have barely been in it! It has become the garage queen! Hopefully this spring and summer I have the chance to drive it more.

hardly ever do i have a passenger. i normally drive my dd to a from work unless it's a nice day and then i take the TA out. if my wife and i have to go somewhere together we take the truck since we have a 1yo daughter. the TA doesn't have back seats either.

I have a passenger maybe once every few months. None of my non car friends want to ride in my car. They say it's annoying. Usually if I have a passenger its my fiancee going with me to one of the Saturday night meets.

I hate having passengers for some reason. I just like to be solo.

Rarely.

It's odd/uncomfortable for me to have someone riding shotgun and it's not a female.

The Thugs Do It Though.

Exactly on both counts. Except it's weird even with my wife riding shotgun. It's like she's crimping my style. LOL.

I have a passenger more often than not in my car. I and my brother work at the same place an hour away, so we carpool. He drives one day, I drive the next, etc.

I've had someone in the back seat only a couple times since I've owned the car though - nobody likes it back there

I have my gf with me more times than not, I rarely drive it alone. But thats mainly b/c I dont drive it a lot to begin with lol. If its raining, or a chance of rain it stays inside b/c water spots are the enemy.

I'd say there is someone riding with me maybe 50% of the time. It's hard to remember really since it's been parked since this past April

The back seats have been out for years though. Not really for the weight reduction, but so I can legitimately tell people I don't have room for more riders

I almost always have someone with me when I'm driving around, since it's my DD, and they always complain about the legroom, since the right side cat is there. I just tell them that the passenger seat isn't made for someone of their gender.
