    It's time to replace my drivers seat. I used to be happy with National, but I'm ready to try something else. One brand that seems very comfy and to be available everywhere is - Sears.

    Specifically the Elite series covered in Ultraleather. It sells for about $750 and I'd like to keep the price around that maybe up to $1000 if its really nice.

    Anybody have experience with this particular seat? How is the Ultraleather?Or recommend something else?

    I just bought one and really like it.
    My only complaint is that I'm 6' tall and the seat cushion doesn't come ahead as far as I would like under my legs but I'm getting used to it.

     
    SHC Thanks this.

    I have the same complaint as Allan, the bottom cushion does not extend out far enough. I got a good deal on my seat so I can't complain (free) but I will be moving it to the passenger side soon and getting a Bostrom LO HD for the drivers side. It has a much better suspension, the cushion slides out extremely far, and it sits LO for my truck as a stock type seat has my head in the roof (Western Star Lowmax)
