Same here, I still liked it though. Now I'm looking for something that is 7700 lb and needs hauling to convince me and the bank I need this car. Everything looked really good, I especially liked the useful feature that lowers the car by an inch if speeds are over 112 mph. Everything looked nice, but besides some off road features nothing spectacular from the Passat (as far as I could find). Didn't sit in the backseat, but that didn't look like it was made to seat passengers.
One of the better SUV's, but like most SUV's (and some cars) 90% useless. I'll wait for the Pheaton (actually Touran, but I don't think I can wait that long)
