This is my biggest concern (I’m also waiting for a 2 row to eliminate the cargo concern). I’m 6’3” and 230lbs. Glad he touched on it in the vid but definitely hasn’t helped with my concern of feeling like a sardine!
Uh...that might be tight for you. Just go and test drive one and see how it feels, but I understand that TDs are usually quick and to have a better feel the ideal would be to drive for at least 30mins/1 hour to have a real-life/road trip experience.
 
The shape of everyone's derrière.
Yeah. I think it has more to do with width than length, if you know what I mean. 😅 Also, lots of folks coming to the 700OT were used the 200's throne where you can basically seat and relax as you do in your living room couch or lazy boy.

I personally find the OT's seat far superior to the 200s "bench" of a driver seat. I never found the 200s seat uncomfortable but I always felt like I was sitting on top of the seat vs sitting 'in' the seat on the LX.

I'm not tall, but have a decent size torso; 5'6" 195# athletic build (squatter build, aka short legs lol).

That's probably the best description for what I also feel when seating in the 200. Honestly feels awesome to me, though it might contribute to the boat-like feeling when going into some sharp turns.
 
So I rock crawled my 700 up some pretty knarly trails last weekend and it’s incredible. I have a built 80 and the bone stock 700 outperformed it. No lie. Unless you actually off-road these things your wasting your money

I hated the 200 HE seats. The 2019 LC I had were wayyyyy more comfy.

Now the seats in the 700h nailed it.

You ever see the curbs at Starbucks and Chikfila? Gotta activate the front and rear lockers.
 
Pics or...you know..
I didn’t take pics:/ but I’m going to elk hunt in it a couple times to test it more. I live in Montana so I’ll be sure to take pics in a couple weeks during season. Coming from a devout 80 owner/fan, I cannot overstate enough how good this truck is off-road. It’s to the point where I’m considering selling my 80, buying my wife another 3rd row SUV, and making this my off-road/hunting truck. I didn’t even air down. It feels better at highway pressure than my 80 does at 16 psi. I am getting a compressor put in next month, can’t wait to see what it’s like aired down. I was wheeling with a couple other Toyota Tacoma’s and they aired down, I had no need to.
