    Does anyone know with any degree of accuracy as to how much more weight the third row seating option adds to the total weight of the vehicle on the fifth gen?

    Have a look at the inside of the driver’s door jamb for a yellow sticker. It might give a clue.

    Just double checked, 56lbs sticker is from my TRD Pro. Here's both stickers if that helps anyone.

    TRD Pro (5seats) -

    Oooh look, another mod.....
    So, going by your sticker: 1,165lbs for 7 seating (which means 3rd row), that is 166.43lb per seat (I rounded up from 166.428571lbs). Each seat cushion can hold 166lbs safely and comfortably.

    Too many to list & Worth every penny!
    OMG, some of us need to lose weight to keep from overburdening our seat cushions!

    please note sarcasm in my tone
