Default 5 Adults in an LS?

Anyone has traveled on a road trip with 5 regular size adults in an LS?
Central to the question is that does the middle hump on the rear preclude long trips for the middle rear seat passenger?
Thanks.

I haven't done it but I can't imagine anyone using the middle of the rear seat as a place to sit, maybe a kids carseat at best.

Yes, while its billed as a five passenger it is really only suitable for 4. It is uncomfortable for anything over 15 minutes.

I did a 5 passenger trip that was a few hours each direction. The person sitting in the rear middle complained a good deal about their butt hurting.

I wouldn't do anything over an hour each way.
Also, the person should be light and small.. probably under 5'6".. plus a man with standard shoulder width will not be comfortable
