Ard you talking about the 2nd row or the 3rd?
I have no problem.



Rear view on the Pathfinder is ok with second row seats up and third row
folded down flat. Rear view gets obstructed through with third row up
and their headrests up.

I didn't notice on the Highlander that I tried if the backup camera
showed a "predictive" course when backing up. The one in the Pathfinder
does ... meaning as you back up there is a outlined box that moves as
you turn the steering wheel indicating were you are moving towards as
well as additional cameras that show the front corners as well. Pretty
much gives you an all around view of the vehicle. It has an 8 inch
display screen, so it's pretty easy to see everything. It also has a
"sonar" system warning that lets you now if you are going to hit anything.

Reminds me of flying lessons when you have to rely totally on
instruments rather than an actual view. :-)

BTW, the Highlander was nice. I think it had a softer ride than the
Pathfinder which is a bit more stiff. I just preferred the Nissan overall.

We looked in 2009. They have changed the Highlander a lot since then body
wise.
