wife rides shotgun maybe once a year. i tote the kids around to local car shows, but they are too young to be in the front.
whenever i get together with friends to go to a car show, we do the swingers thing and each drive our own cars.

I usually have one other passenger on ocasions. Sometimes 2 others if they absolutley need a ride. But most of the time I just make others walk, even in the rain. I hate giving into giving people rides because then they will ask all the time. Part of the reason I'll be deleting my rear seat this spring.

All you solo guys out there are lucky, I usually have a whole pile of friends that wanna go for a ride. Doesn't really help the stoplight race scenerio out much. Guess I just need more hp, Right?

This is just a bit off subject, but I'm gonna tell the story anyways...
I live in small town and one evening my fiance' and I were in the Firebird crusing town. We came upon the local hangout spot (an old convenience store parking area) and noticed there was a group of my friends gathered there. The fiance', who was simply my girlfriend at the time, hadn't ridden in the car but a couple of times. I preceded to rip off a couple of donuts for the crowd and while doing so, the girlfriend is freaking out, saying **** like, "if you're gonna do this, don't do it with me in the car!"
So once I completed my final "roundtrip", I tell her, "Do you see all those people watching us? Every single one of them wants to be right where you are, right now. Whatta you think of that? Do you still want out of the car?"
I don't recall if she had an answer to my questions, but obviously she is now my fiance' and we are still together, so I'd say she got over it.
All this talk of passengers reminded me of this little experience and I thought it would be best if I shared it with the ls1tech crowd.
Oh... and to answer the O.P.'s question, very seldom do I have a passenger unless its her. And I can't remember the last time I had anyone in the back seats.

Usually just me and the lady or a friend. However, I can remember twice when someone rode in the back. We went to a Browns game and and the guy in the back sat sideways all the way there and back because the guy in the front is like 6'1" so the seat was back a good ways. the second time I had a car full of girls going to IHOP. Like one in the front and two in the back seat. This is only fun until they turn the radio on and everyone is singing soprano. That was too much estrogen in the car.

Hardly ever, unless I'm on a date. I think the last time I had another person in car car with me was back in Sept.
It gets more pass seat use in the summer though, if I go anywhere with just one person (usually a chick) I usually like to drive, so I can pull the tops off. I find the girls love it in the summer too, lol.
It's kind of funny, I've been dating this girl for almost 2 months now, and she still doesn't know about the existance of "the other woman". It doesn't get much use this time of year, I've mostly been driving my Jeep, which as far as I know is all she thinks I have. If she's worthy I'll surprise her with it on a nice day this spring.
As far as the back seat, I've owned the car for over 2 years, and I can count on one hand the times I've had someone in the back.
