Of course she was comparing it my Armada so it's kinda not fair for her to compare them!   I will have to see how the toe room is on the GTO. The back seat is actually pretty comfy from what I hear for a coupe.   -mike Replies to this message: xwesx (Jan 24, 2007 11:47 pm) paisan (Jan 25, 2007 12:13 am)

Replying to: paisan (Jan 24, 2007 8:14 pm) I have to agree with the "toe room" comment. To me, the entire passenger cabin in the new (05+) Legacy/Outback feels cramped, and I am comparing this to a '96 Outback. I think a lot of that has to do with the much bulkier seats and the thicker frames around the doors for the airbags.   I do not mind if the front seats are close to the back seats in terms of knee room as one can work around that, but not being able to stick toes under the seat sure makes the ride feel real cramped, real quick; and, there is not much clearance there.   The Armada, though.... I am not sure how anyone fits in that little thing! Replies to this message: paisan (Jan 25, 2007 12:13 am)
