We're considering a Dodge Caravan / Chrysler T&C as the next family truckster & pinhauler, but try as I might I can't find an answer to this seemingly simple question:
- Can someone tell me (measure) this distance between the *raised* second-row seat backs, and the closed tailgate?
We need to know if it's possible to safely seat 4 people AND fit a ~55" long modern pin in the van at the same time. And/or if not behind the 2nd row (to be honest, I find this unlikely), then maybe a 60/40 split-fold works somehow - if you could explain any seat option weirdness (bench vs. stow-and-go) required to pull this off?
I have seen people slice and dice these vans every which way, even on YT videos for custom builds, and yet NOBODY seems to ever consider the available space behind the second row beyond "height" or "cubic feet" which isn't particularly helpful here. So I beseech my fellow pinheads... thanks in advance!
