I 've sat in the back seats... I think they're perfectly fine. They're not too straight to me.

Yep, one of the most utterly inexplicable differences between English and American English. I never could understand how "could care less" is effectively the same as "couldn't care less". Yet another example in support of George Bernard Shaw's famous quote....

HAHAHHAAH Grammer... if you speak really fast... you cant tell if one is saying Couldn't care less or could care less... so it never gets corrected so the sega continues.

Anyone else feels the same way?

Not really. Someone posted something similar earlier so I have asked all my passengers since, including a few pretty tall folks (my 14 year old son is 6' 1"). Until I mentioned that seatback angle, nobody noticed, but when they thought about it, most said it did seem a bit more upright. There is more room than the back seat of our Passat, and an older model Camry we had. And I think the trunk is just right. Maybe a bit big for every day commutes but perfect for a few days getaway. I might think otherwise if my wife was as efficient a packer of luggage as I am.

I love the back seats because when I have to carry passengers, I do not have to move my seat foward to accomidate the person behind me. Iv'e never sat back their either and I love the truck dead bodies and all.

Camry has very comfortable back seat. There is one time I mistakenly think my friend?s Camry is a Lexus ES330, it was really quite and comfortable in the back.

I'm 5'11' and weigh more than I'd like to admit. Find the back seat very comfortable. I do admit though, that I like the driver's seat in a more upright position than most do. Trunk quite roomy, and I like that as well.
