    Interesting topic. If the truck I get doesn't have an armrest, I will have to use a pillow or some other improvisation. I once had a computer chair that didn't have arm rests and my shoulders began to hurt after a few hours.

    I have arm rests, both sides, on both seats. If anyone wants them, they can have 'em. In 30 years I never have liked the darn things. All they do is get in the way. Next seats I order will not have them. At least the driver's side. Passenger side is ok.

    I'm in a freightshaker 07 century and it has no armrests and I HATE IT. After 20k miles I have gotten used to it but that doesn't mean I like it. I'm sure seats without armrests are a cost saving measure but really, I'd pay the extra cost just to have a seat with an armrest. I'm trying to develop a design to install an armrest and legally bolt it to the seatbelt bracket. Problem is I lost my fabrication garage when I left my wife so all my metalworking tools are in storage. I know it can be done easily just haven't had the chance to do it.
