I have 3 kids under 10. Curious if anyone has a family of 5 or frequently seats 5 in the R1T and their experience. Really this is my only concern about the R1T. I’m committed to a truck so I’d be looking at a crew cab full size truck otherwise. This also wouldn’t be our primary family vehicle so more about being comfortable enough for 15-30 min trips to run errands. I’m hoping the extra dimensions of those vehicles doesn’t make that big a difference, at least not when it comes to pre teens.

It's tight but do-able for the family of 5. We've done quite a few road trips 3 across the back. Only one in a car seat (in the middle), which makes it kinda hard to buckle the other two, but after a couple of days of struggling they've gotten the hang of it.

My wife has rode in the middle seat between 2 car seats for 2 hours and says it's not bad but not amazing. She is 5'4" 100-170 ( I mean I don't want to be killed tonight in my sleep with specifics). I rode in the back of my friends R1T from Houston down to Galveston with 2 other adult men 6' 190 range and I can say it also wasn't great but I didn't die.

Did a 3000 mile road trip with kids aged 10/13/15. They were comfy, no complaints.

It’s a tight squeeze for two adults and one starship captain.
