This is a source of angst for me, looking at my beautiful 4-seat coupe the other day all I could think of was the waste.

I've only had a passenger in the car for maybe 5% of the miles I've put on it, and the rear seat may never see use.

This is the tragedy of most vehicles in the USA, at least as daily work commuters consisting only the driver.
