3rd Seat for Escape, Tribute, etc
The Ford Escape hybrid with FWD has the best fuel efficiency, currently, of any SUV on the market, but there isn’t a factory option for third row seating. That prevents some of us from taking it too seriously. One couple came up with a solution.
Little Seats makes DIY kits for installing a variety of third-row seats. All of which are removable, and which comply with federal safety standards. They even have a buy-back option so they can offer used kits to families who really need something affordable.
New, you’ll drop anywhere from $700 to $1200 for most. Used start around $500.
I would hate to have someone rear end me with someone acting as the back bumper — I would never risk someone’s life like that, so what if the seat is safe.
Hi Terry, isn’t that the same as hutchback car. There is little or no space between the bummer and the seat.
So you will never put your kids in a hutchback?
