We have two Graco extend 2 fit car seats in the captains chairs. I am the primary driver and shorter (5’4”), but I am easily able to get in the car between the first and second row and slide between the chairs to get in the back. When the drivers chair is in my 6’3” husband’s position, I need to move it forward or go in on the passenger side. We have the captains chairs as far back as they go except about half an inch or an inch to allow the third row to move up and down. Once the car seat is installed there is minimal movement of the captains chairs as you can anticipate.. I think with one car seat and a booster seat you should be totally fine depending on the size of third row occupant and how often you need to utilize it.
I cross shopped an Escalade for this reason as I was concerned about the X7 with two car seats and questioning adding a third. Actually, it’s still on order as I wanted to get in the X7 for a solid few months to fully decide. After a few weeks with our X7 I can confidently say it isn’t an issue and we will be keeping it. It feels a lot more spacious and usable with two car seats than I anticipated.
If you want I can take pictures. Hope this helps.
