    I could buy a Legacy Gold every 8 weeks for a YEAR for the price of ONE Bose seat!!!

    5'9 225- I replaced my bostrom wide rides with the same bostrom wide rides 4/5 years ago. They're good for like 6/8 months.
    I would not buy another.
    Also, Idk about the aerocab version, but the older cabs like I got, the swivel don't work well. You got to lean the seat back all the way forward, slide the chair all the way forward, then you can swivel ~30 degrees.

    Bought a legacy few months ago and it's just OK. I had Atlas Elites in a previous truck an they were awesome. Didn't flatten out foam stayed up and firm. I'm going to order one here shortly.

    That's good to know about the legacy. I can't decide what to get. I know not to buy a national, and that the wide ride must be for guys much bigger than me, or to sell a truck.

    Sears seating make a nice seat designed for KW’s. The arm rests fold up then swing behind the seats, makes much more room to get to bunk. They also have one of the best for and aft isolator.

    I have a pair in my Pete and would buy again.

    My W-9 came with the Sears Atlas 2 in ultra-leather with the fold away armrests. They are still comfortable with 288,xxx miles on them. There is some wear on the outside front edge of the seat from me sliding off the edge of the seat when exiting the truck. I imagine that would be an issue regardless of what seat i had. When they are due for replacement I will probably go with the same seats, but with A/C for the summer. Nothing like a cool breeze on the nether regions...

    Well, pulled the trigger on Legacy series by Seats Inc. Local KW dealer had a helluva deal going and got two seats (that were in stock) for the price of one Bostrom Wide Ride + Serta (that I would have to wait 14-28 days on). For what I have in them, I'll ride them for a year then trade-up if I dont really like them. Will start a new thread on them once they have some miles on them. Thanks to everyone for their input!!
