Anyone opt for the bench seat in the front instead of captain chairs?

Pros and cons to both. If I ever go back to a single cab basic truck, I'll probably opt for the bench seats. Just depends on the make/model.

Ok, I wasn't sure if the bench seat was an outdated concept as you rarely find any at the dealership but it appears others feel the same way as I and prefer the bench seat.
Good, was feeling like the odd man out.

My "19" Laramie has the bench seat and it's also a light colored interior (Mountain Brown/Light frost beige), also with the so called long box 6'4" so it is quite the unicorn. I'm somewhat looking for a newer truck and going to a 2500 with the same options. It is just about impossible to find one.

Editted to add; yes I am a fan of the bench seat as the bucket seat center console gets in the way of my knee and creates a sore spot on long drives.

Under the front middle seat where they hid the cd-player. It's pretty unintuitive, good spot!

Ok, what’s the secret storage?

I would have to say its the under seat storage in the middle seat where the cd player is. Have it on my 2019 with the bench seat.

Just an example of a con for 2025 bench seat (if you haven't read the earlier posts I'm generally a fan and have had 2 trucks I ordered with the bench). Models equipped with the smartphone as a key feature require the bucket seats - i.e. if my 25 Laramie Level 2 had the bench I would not have smartphone as a key like I do with the bucket seats.
