I feel your pain. Both of our second row seats have baby car seats in em and with a double stroller in the back there isn't much room for guests/anything else. I might be going XL next go around myself.

I don't know how many kids you have, but even with our 2 little ones, the extra space in the Suburban is great for all the junk that kids seem to come with these days. The 3rd row is much more usable even than the Expedition, which was my prior car (and has the fold-down back seats). Good luck! Plus, having the 3rd row available for further separation of said little ones comes in handy sometimes too!

I have an 18 month old and 1 month old occupying the two captains chairs. Wish I had a second row bench honestly. Yep def leaning towards a burb or Yukon XL next time.

Yup you need a bench Felix. I have a 3 and 2 year old their seats occupy two seats and a full size adult can fit on the second row bench no problem. As for the rear I took one of the seats off to leave room for the stroller and "stuff," and have another seat available.

Yeah I was kinda looking into a bench as well with having the 4 month old twins taking the capt chairs. But so far it is wroking out well. I can't go ESV just because wouldn't fit in the garage and way to big for the wife when she needs to drive it.

i see what you all are saying about a bench but with three kids we LOVE our captains chairs and wouldn't have any other way! The reason being is that my 6 year old can just walk back to the third row and buckle up. No folding up seats or climbing over seats. Here pretty soon my 3 almost 4 year old will be doing the same thing and it'll be really nice!! When we got our burb we specifically looked for Captains chairs as a requirement just for this reason.

Yea I hear ya Jacob. In a burb I'd def want captains chairs. In an esky, definitely wish I woulda got the bench.

I was concerned about the ESV/YukXL fitting in my garage too but the avy fits so I'm thinking it will fit... Wonder if the length of an avy and burb are the same since they're on the same frame.

Yea I realize that if you read my post above I mentioned them being on the same frame. Just wasn't sure if the total length of the vehicle would be the same... It would suck to get a YukXL and then it not fit in my garage.

I'd bet the length is at least very close. how much space do you have left when you close your garage door when you park the Avy in the garage?

Not sure exactly as I'm not at home but I'm guessing about 1-2 feet max? It was a tight squeeze for sure.

The SS Burb
Avalance is about 1" shorter than the burb. Thats for the 2012 models

Ah that's nice to know thanks buttons. I guess the points really moot since if I did hypothetically get the YukXL it'd be the 2014 model and we don't have the details/specs of that vehicle yet.
