It's late, so I must be missing something. Removing the $940 rear seat of a 148wb 15-passenger yields the same storage space as a 12-passenger, so why wouldn't you just get that? That is a 15 passenger with rear seat delete. Do you need exactly 11 seats? Most days, I have 2 of my rear seats out which leaves us with seats for 10 and more space than a 15 passenger with rear seats removed. On the days when I need all 12 seats, I just put the extra seats back in. If I need more space, I remove more seats.
Can you order a 15-pass with rear-seat delete?
From my understanding, both the low-roof 12 and 15-pass vans are the same length @ 148". We require significant storage space in the rear of the van, more than what comes in either the 12 or 15-pass configurations. My question then is, can we order 15-pass vans with the last row deleted. Better yet, ordering a 12 passenger in the 15 passenger configuration, so the last row would have the four seats?
What we are currently doing is ordering the 15-pass and removing the rear seats ourselves, which creates an 11-pass van with a wasted $940 seat.
Thank you and appreciate the help.

Only with the extended wb 15 seater. On the 148" wb, the 2+1 4th row of a 15 passenger is in the same position as the 2+2 4th row of a 12 passenger.
Those drawings on that child seat anchor page are not accurate except on the location of anchor points. The images show the 12 passenger seats in a 130" wb, a configuration not available as far as I know, and the wrong rear seats in the extended 15 passenger.
The rear of a 148" 12 passenger looks just like the rear of the extended 15 passenger, even using the same 2+2 rearmost row (not 1+2+1).
