    Anybody know if there is a difference between the Legacy Silver and Legacy Ultra? Fitzgerald seems to have the best price with free shipping, but they only show the Silver in cloth. The Ultra in leather is about the same price.

    I can't quite answer your question but when I was looking for a seat earlier this year I found Legacy Silvers and a few other Legacy models more than any other in truck dealers. Seems like every dealer I've ever been in has Legacy Silvers in stock. I had no trouble at all in my area finding black and gray leather and black cloth in stock. After that it was deciding and finding who had them cheapest. I wound up paying about $900 for a gray leather.

    I hate it but that's not what you asked. Maybe the Ultra is better than the silver.

    I thought the Legacy silver ultra referred to the leather as in Ultra leather. Used to be called Dura leather. Sounds much better than vinyl. Usually a bit more expensive than cloth. Silvers hard to beat for value. I got a set of Pinnacles. Supposedly better than Legacy Silver. Cushions are harder than the silver. May hold up longer, but IMO not as comfortable as the Silver. Best price I found was at Big Rig Truck Parts in Hubbard Ohio. They’re a KW Dealership. I made them an offer to buy 2 for $100 off total price. They accepted. Made it a great deal. Good place. Good prices. Online Store. Check for availability, picked up in person and saved the shipping, Freightliner Dealers always have them on sale at good prices. Stoops in Lima Ohio has a good selection.

    Hmm, silvers are about $700 at my local dealerships. I found foam is not good after couple of years, quality is on the cheaper side

    That's what I thought too until I tried to find one. All 900-1000 around here. I'll go back and look exactly what I paid but I think it was 900.

    Tnought about ordering online but shipping killed that.

    They were on sale forever at a lot of Freightliner Dealerships. Not anymore. It’s been a couple years. I doubt you can find a silver ultra for less than $900. I think I paid around $1800 for both Pinnacles. Now they’re $2800 same place.
