I skimmed through several pages but didn't see it, does anybody have an idea of the weight limit on that pull out table?

@laj.tuxmek Said couple weeks back it can hold two morbidly obese large sized adults I believe.

I remember seeing that 400 lbs was not a problem.

Not sure if this helps but here are some better pictures from today's thread:

Looks like the driver's seat is pushed all the way to the rear and still looks like plenty of leg room. I wonder how challenging it is for rear passengers to get in and out or getting a car seat into the base.

That honestly looks fine to me. The driver's seat is even leaned back. And the boot space isn't bad either. Pull out those seats and it's more than enough for me on a road/camping trip.

Thank you both for quick replies. I thought I had seen it elsewhere but I have looked at so many different vehicles the last month stuff starts to roll together.

The sliding tailgate is available for both 4-door and 2-door.

Well then... I think this would fix that 4 inch step then!

I guess you'll have to get a shorter husband.
I don't see any other possible solution for this.
lol

This is a brilliant solution.

@Southern Girl, I volunteer as tribute. I can guarantee all the back seat legroom anyone might desire.

I like head out to the woods and make a little bed in the back of my 4Runner to make a quick and easy camping trip. I have the same issue with those seats. i had to make a little platform even things out.

Anyone see any air vents in the back yet? If it confirmed there are none back there?

With the roof off, I'm thinking you jump up on the tire and make a slide through entry like Bo Duke

That is the only cool way to do it.

Incline wouldn't be a big deal, but how in the world could a 4" step in the middle of ones torso be pretty good for sleeping? Flat would be much better in every way and I can't fathom why Ford would design it this way.

I made a post later... I was thinking the 4" was the rise from the flat floor... Not that there was a 4" step and then a rise.

So it would be terrible for sleeping. Ha. That fancy-pants pull-out tray thing might make a good platform though and possibly part of the reasoning for the step.

The front seats are all the way back. There is no legroom in any car when you put the front seat all the way back.

I'm 6'5", and in my old Edge, I could comfortably drive with my 6'7" brother-in-law in the back seat behind me. The Edge has 40" of rear legroom. There's plenty of legroom with the seat all the way back.

Bronco:
Front Leg Room = 43.1 inches (1996 Bronco had 41.1 inches)

Rear Leg Room = 36.3 inches (1996 Bronco had 37.7 inches)
