kinda stupid, but...

anybody just hop in the back seat of your cars?

I swear, I just got home from work, and I realize there is hardly ever anyone back there. So I hopped in there, and extended the reclining seats.

Its amazing how much leg room there is, and how damn comfortable this car is from back there.

I certainly wouldn't mind being chauffeured around in one of these cars.

there was a huge accident on the highway this summer and traffic wasn't moving at all. I put up the sun shades cranked the ac put on some tunes n just relaxed in the back. I sat there for like an hour. I love the back of the s. But the 7 is better with the fridge and tv tuner along with DVD in the rear.

Same thing here. I had my lady drive me around town just so I could sit in the back and read the newspaper. We had to stop at a traffic light, I rolled down the back window and asked the guy in the car next to me if he would pass the grey paupon. She really loved it.

I live in Asia and its quite common to have a driver in the household, I have an S320 LWB and the power is not that impressive but it sure is nice when i get driven around. It makes you feel good sitting in the back with all the space

Yes, the car feels a lot more comfortable back there for some reason.

No, it's an option.

A Mercedes obviously!
When my father had his W220 I'd usually sit in the back even if it was just me and him in the car, the LWBs have a ton of room in the back. He suggested wearing a black suit with black tie and cap with a white shirt once but we never got round to it. I did used often have a laptop out on the rear picnic tables if I needed to get some school work finished off so it'd have gone well with the faux teen businessman image!
