    What do you do about the backseat space?

    I love my 99 Galant ES so much. Best car ever made 8g in general is just amazing. but the one thing i really really dislike is the backseat room. why is the trunk space so large but interchangeably keep the back seat so tiny? how do u guys deal with it and have other gens been like this? thanks

    Um, don't have your front seats pushed so far back?

    I've had two people in the back of the Galant, and they've got a good amount of room.

    Need to live a life of loneliness lol. But really I have yet to have more than person in my car in a year of owning it. Rarely have anyone in it besides myself. But leg room is surprisingly small given the size of an 8g and the fact it's a 4dr. Now that I think about it, I had more people in my old 240 than I have in the G..smh

    i don't know, there's plenty of room in the back seat of my 8g:

    I like how some members are using this thread to brag about.. whatever it is they're trying to say.
    Anyways. I think the back seats are alright in the 8G. Leg room could be better back there, but definitely beats a truck. The front seats are pretty adjustable, so there's always that option. And groceries always fit nice and snug down there on the floor between the seats.
    I really do like the trunk though. Have never had problems stuffing it with suitcases.

    I don't I just think they could have done much better with less trunk space and more leg space is all

    Your words, not mine. But don't let me stop you from posting those pics up too.

    (I think it'd be funny, actually.)

    sorry i don't actually have any pics of groceries or dudes in the back seat... we have an SUV for going to the grocery and hauling around people. come to think of it, my G has pretty much lost all semblance of practicality and daily drivability.

    Usually, my toddler enjoying a flick or two while an oscillating provides additional and much needed air circulation, in the desert A/C alone sometimes don't cut it on very hot days.
