I had always wondered, thinking that a driver's armrest would preclude my three dogs (two Bostons and an overweight Bichon) from using the pass-through floor console.

Well, last night I loaded up a 7-foot tall bookcase by reclining the passenger seat and sitting the bookcase on top. My dogs were still able to walk through the tiny gap between the seats and underneath the bookcase. My question definitively answered, driver's armrest has been ordered today from Majestic Honda!
