Sometimes a failure is evident just from looking at it. The back seat of the Crosstour speaks volumes about poor ergonomic design.
You sit in one yet?

Yeah, didn't think so. It's not nearly as bad as you might think. No, it isn't as good as the sedan but I would have no problem back there for the long haul (I'm 6' tall). I don't wear my helmet going to the grocery store or taking a vacation so I'm pretty sure 95% of the population won't have a problem either.

Yeah... somehow I can just tell when a seat is poorly designed. Call it a sixth sense. The off center cushioning, low headroom, and ridiculous arm rests of the Crosspoor tell a rich visual story of what it would be like to sit in one, and if I get the chance, I'll take it just to know, but it doesn't look promising. If its not "as bad as I might think", coming from someone who's sat back there, that's good news. The rear seating comfort is the least of that car's problems though.

Do you think 95% of the population won't have a problem with it because its not that bad, or because they won't ever be back there? Just wondering...

It's when your opinion contradicts a prior purchase (ie, buying an "ugly" car before, but somehow now it's not okay) that I raise the question. I have no problem with opinions but some consistency would be nice.

So...I guess you're referring to my Insight? Sure...the Insight was no beauty queen...but it was certainly functional...it delivered great fuel mileage and could transport 5 people...albeit not in the best of comfort...but it served it's purpose well while I had it. Bear in mind I originally visited the Honda dealer for a hideous Pilot that my wife wanted...and left with an Insight since it certainly fit my driving for work better.

I'm now in a Toyota Camry since my Insight landed in the river back in the early part of December.

In other words, airgate likes him an ugly car, and even he won't touch the Crosstour it's so ugly.
