As roomy as cars like the Lincoln Town Car and Nissan Maxima are, neither can match the accommodations offered by full-size trucks and vans. Of course, opting for a truck or van has some serious trade-offs (especially in the areas of handling and fuel economy) , but if you need more room than a sedan can provide, perhaps one of these hefty vehicles will find a warm spot in your driveway. To come up with our list, we took the average of each vehicle's front head-, hip- and legroom. (All measurements are given in inches) 1.
