re: Captain's chairs in a 3-row SUV

Had an '08 Explorer and now a '14 Armada, both with bench seat and only 1 child. I still very much prefer it that way to maximize cargo space to be able to keep the 3rd row folded down when we have grandparents or friends visiting from out of town and we can all ride together. Not that captain's seats would be the end of the world, but just not me or my wife's preference.
