There is no point to these question other than sheer curiosity. Just curious to know how you all roll with your rear seats. Center armrest up or down?, rear head rests up or down?, seat belts fastened or unfastened?

 

Flat and low, like my ladies.

 

arm rest up ... head rests tucked down, and seatbelts unfastened

 

If I asked, I guess I should have probably answered as well. Armrest down, outboard headrests up, belts unfashioned.

 

Funny this was just posted today. Yesterday I had 3 in the back for the first time and someone had to sit in the center. I realized how useless the center seat is. Arm rest had been up. Now I think I will leave it down. Head rests are down as typically the back consists of kids. Seat belts unfastened (except when someone is in the back ).

 

Headrest up,armrest down and seatbelt unfastened (unless someone will be in the back but no riders yet lol)

 

So how bad was 3 in the back? I really want a TL but the hump in the back seat may be a deal breaker. I have 3 kids and may need to use it from time to time.

 

depends how big ur kids are ... im 6'3'', and there is no way that i would be able to sit in the middle seat

 

I think the hump is OK for kids. I don't think they'd mind sitting on it and it's not that uncomfortable. Not so for an average size adult. The head was almost hitting the roof of the car. I think that's more the issue. For me, it's not that big of a deal. Most of the time it will be kids in the back seat (typically 2). On the occasions with adults, it will probably be 2 at most. It will probably be a rare occurrence with 3 full-size adults in the back. It just so happened that the rare occurrence happened for the first time yesterday.

 

headrests up and armrests down. u never know when you'll have company back there...

and I would never make someone sit on the center (AWD?) hump unless I hated them

 

Headrests up and armrest up - but may try armrest down... Rarely have anyone in the back.

 

Up; down; unfastened.

 

Thanks to all for taking the time to respond.

 

No one who sits behind me when I'm driving (I'm 6 foot 5) can be comfortable, so they tend to sacrifice safety for comfort and don't use the rear seat-belt. And armrest up. Up all the way.

 

center arm rest down. rear headrest down. seatbelt unfastened.
i rarely have people sitting in the back.

 

A little bit late to the party....but I have my armrest up and tucked away, the headrest are down and seatbelts are unbuckled.

 

Headrest up and center armrest down. Even in the Maxima.

 

Back seat windows up; thats the way I like to.....

 

I think you mean face down, ass up

Headrests down, armrest up, seatbelts unfastened (well one at least). I have my daughter's car seat base behind the passenger seat and she's the only one that ever sits back there. Unless she's being fussy then mommy joins her

I will say the hump in the middle is great for younger kids. It's kind of like a built in booster seat...helps them see out of the windows.

 

+1. About the only good use for it.

 

Rear armrest up, the headrests down and seat belts are unbuckled.

 

they should have put another center console in the back seat like they did for the previous generation maxima and just call it a four seater ... maybe they will do it on the next gen?

 

A bit late but armrest up, headrest down and seats belts unbuckled. & I somehow always have 2-3 people in the back and on a rare occasion 4. It's always a battle between them for who gets stuck with the center seat lol.

 

4? Now that must be a sight to behold!!! LOL!

 

I have three small kids - I leave the armrest UP as I put all three in the back.

I agree.. for adults the rear center seat is useless...but for small kids, they fit three across. the TL is not our primary family car..we have an MDX for that..but we often use the TL for shorter trips to keep the mileage off the MDX...

 

Yep,half cheek to the right and half cheek to the left, lmao.

 

Great minds think alike. Same thing here

 

I very rarely have rear seat passengers. So I thought I would go for that "4 bucket seat" look.

 

Same here!
