Any G-Wagon owners find the lack of legroom in the backseat area to be a major issue for you and your family? The G-Wagon has been a dream car of mine for the past couple years, been reviewing and have test-driven them and the lack of backseat legroom has taken the air out of the balloon for me. I just can't wrap my head around the lack of legroom in such a beautiful vehicle. I assume most take it as an SUV sports car. Curious how others feel, is the lack of legroom a bugging issue for you?

For adults I do think it is an issue for longer trips. I wouldn’t buy one as my primary car if I had older kids.

Works fine for my kids who are not teenagers but agree I would not pick this car as a primary family vehicle.

Works fine for us. 17U travel baseball. 17yr son, 20 yr daughter, & booster in back for 8yr old. Luggage in the rear. Sometimes use the rack on top.
