Not exactly sure about the Colorado, but there are 7 & 8 seater
Land cruisers and I know there is definitely a 8 Seater
Colorado. Like the Land Cruiser there are probably a lot of people do
not know or notice that there is a centre seat belt fitted to the rear
most seats in their Colorado and assume that the seats only seat 2
people instead of 3. My 8 Seater Land Cuiser was advertised as a 7
seater when I bought it. The guy I bought it from was astonished that
that it could seat 8 as he used the seats regularly. All that being
said, there is less Headroom on the rearmost seats(the seats sit
higher, on the LC anyway)so they are generally better for kids and small adults. My Kids dont
really need the booster seats if they sit in these seats as the belt is
at a much better height for them. Though I'm not sure of the legality of
this.
