    Notes: I am 5'10". Without moving the drivers seat from my comfortable position, I was still able to sit in the backseat well enough. There was not much extra space, but I didn't feel cramped either.

    The leather feels, dare i say, heavy duty. It feels like its thick and well made. The seat cushions feel tough but supportive and mostly comfortable in my opinion, but I am also used to really soft carpet from my 15 yr old camry.

    People have complained about the cover being cheap and not seated correctly. I haven't found this to be the case. Mine fits flush no problems. I will say that you you need to "drop" the cover to secure it. lightly pushing on in will not lock it completely. one minor annoyance I noticed with the cover are these weather strips on the top of it. the edge sticks up on all of them. also i found the strips tend to come out when you fold them back down after opening the cover, they do push right back into place no problem, just a little annoying. the JBL was worth the money. I love good sound and it does deliver. I Mostly listen to rock, but "turn down for what" was playing on my IPod this morning and it sounded as good as my aftermarket alpines and kicker in my old car, and I didn't have the bass mid or treble at max. I was also able to travel the interstate at 70 with the windows down and still clearly hear the music. Hopefully those all weather mats will come in soon so I can get rid of these damn paper mats. anyways enjoy!

    If its same as our 2015 4R and it sure does look same then you can play via ipod(we use iph) or via truck console. Tracks/vol can be changed on steering wheel.
    Maybe it has voice control like the new 4R. There ls also bluetooth setup between ph and the truck media console.

    just a tad under $700 shipped from discount.tire.direct

    then get the P rated duratracs from tire.rack for just a tad over $700 since discount.tire.direct don't sell P rated duratracs.

    and the warden is a pavement queen. so it wont ever see anything but pavement and maybe a graded dirt road to a friends house.


    edit : dam ui kept adding url's to the stores I mention that didn't lead to the stores I mentioned.

    It's possible it just has too many miles on it from test drives to be sold as new. I was told last week by a salesperson that they can sell as new only with less than 100 miles on the vehicle.
