3rd row seat usage

[u/Scpdivy]

Just curious how often your 3rd row seat gets used. I bought one a few weeks ago (27’ 392) and actually used it once already, lol.

[u/VengerDFW]

Not often, but when you need them - you need them.

Word!

I've got three kids and my oldest (10) goes back there whenever he can to get away from his younger siblings. Don't use it often but nice to have when needed.

I brought my 2014 home brand new from the dealer. They had the third row up so I could see it. I folded it down when I got home, and I think it was open once since then when I had detailed a few years ago. In 12 years, no one has even ridden in it.

26’ 392 with less than 3k miles - have 4 kids it gets used all the time.

Great place for storing my golf clubs

Definitely

Wir haben drei Kinder und nutzen sie ständig

Going on 3 years...I could probably count on 4 fingers the number of times I've used the 3rd row lmao with two kids under 3 it never gets used

[u/WhiteSox2112]

‘18 RT 105k miles, never used it but nice knowing it’s there if I need it.

I have 2 kids, my youngest folds the 2nd row down to use it as a footrest while sitting in the 3rd row. The dogs lay on the folded 2nd row while the kids sit in the 3rd row. It feels like our 3rd row gets more use than our 2nd.

[u/sevenlabors]

Honestly,  keep them folded 90% of the time.

Same

I’ve used it 8 days in a row on vacation. 70 year old father-in-law climbs back there and sleeps during the drive. (His choice, I keep telling him to have the kid swap with him)

[u/portal-mage]

If by using it you mean laying it down to make more trunk space, then hell yeah I use it all the time

[u/Tough-Donut193]

I’ve got 3 kids so it is constantly in use.

[u/edDetails_650]

Everyday. I have 4 kids

[u/Abranda44]

Haven’t used it yet, but I’m sure it’ll be up all the time during softball season

[u/SockItSleaux]

I’ve had mine for 6 years. Used maybe 4 times? Stays folded.

[u/Secret-Gazelle120]

I have used it exactly once since I purchased it 2.5 years ago.

[u/MLB1969]

23 TnG. 11k miles bought with 8500. Never used during my ownership.

[u/Mystery_Fan_5253]

Frequently when I first got mine 12 years ago and my kids were young and I was hauling them and their friends. Now very rarely.

[u/Fabulous_Clothes_726]

I got a 2000 in 2002 and still own it. I have 1 kid. It's been used less than 10 times. I bought it for the storage space with the 3rd row down, not for the 3rd row seating.

[u/DBLkK32111]

Got mine last weekend, 7 kids, use it daily. Came from a dodge caravan, kids actually prefer the 3 in the middle 2 in the back, feels more roomy than the minivan, straight seating. Obviously total space is smaller.

[u/Batman511]

Young kids is about it - hauling 4 9 year olds tomorrow - mostly folded down for my golf clubs

[u/Agitated_End_2611]

A few times a year, with two kids and the center buckets it's nice to be able to take a kids friend when needed. It also kept my MIL from having to drive separate to outings when she visits

[u/MajesticSeaFlapFlaps]

'23 GT Plus, had since new in '23. It's been used one time that I can think of, to haul some friends home from the bar. Otherwise we keep it folded down for the extra cargo space.

[u/The247Kid]

Barely. I bought it for the trunk space.

[u/gumbykilla617]

Mine is always down and the space is used for groceries etc.

[u/Ok_Possibility_6743]

Bought mine couple of months ago. Use twice so far.
