they won't fit... at least comfortably

my friend is 6'3" and 220lbs and barely fit inside

He had to duck his head the entire way

He has since not been in my z

If that's the case my friend floats around 350 give or take 10 lbs, and is an inch taller than your friend, guess it's not happening lol

My best friend is 6'5" and over 350. He rides in my car all the time. Seat all the way back and angled as far back as possible. Totally comfortable, no. Totally workable, yes. Plus it is fun to watch him get OUT of the car. lol

I'm 6'-2" and 250lbs right now and have absolutely no troubles with comfort. Now my entry and exit might leave a little grace to be desired, but they are not that difficult. It's my DD.

Per the owners manual the maximum weight of the driver + passenger is 450 lbs.

Put him in the hatch and drop him off at a gym.

I don't know.. maybe my friend was just being a baby but he seemed very uncomfortable with his head hitting the roof and his knees hitting the glove compartment and he said he couldn't straighten his legs...

after 30 mins of driving he said his legs felt numb lol

maybe the driver side has more room than the passenger side?
