    Looking at two different seats for a Freightliner.
    Legacy Gold by Seats Inc or The Sears Elite 80 series.

    Got to junk the poor excuse of the factory seat.
    I want something that gives a little more leg room and will ride lower.

    The local dealers don't have much to choose from...

    Opinions please!

    I'm a company driver so when I got a new seat they bought me the legacy silver. I like it. There arnt a lot of bells and whistles but it comfortable. I'm 602 and 215 lbs. I'm suppose to be a new truck next summer and am planning on taking the seat with me.

    Thanks for the input.
    Does the Legacy set any lower than the factory seat?

    No. I usually have my seats high.

    Ended up going with the Legacy low profile wide ride...Sits perfect!
    The Peterbilt dealer had the best price...beat all the other dealers by 150 bucks!

    This didn't sit low but it was THE most comfortable seat I've had, too bad I didn't take it out of the bus when I left. It was a Recaro, if I can ever afford them again, I'll have two in black ostrich leather.
