Is it possible to order a Laramie with front bench (6 seats) and 12” infotainment system? Tried using the Ram website but I couldn’t see such an option. Not sure if the 2020+ Laramie is even available in the 6 seat config...I think I saw a 2019 earlier this year in the Sport package, but it did not have the 12” system.

I have 2019 Laramie quad cab configured with 12” and seating for six has I have no real need for a crew cab (90+% time only one in my baby) and I get the 6 1/2 ft bed that I use regularly. Excellent for bad right knee as well

Here’s a photo from a gentleman who has the (6) seat option and the 12” screen. 41D9DA41-6351-4770-B39F-8C9EF3BD0A6A.jpeg

Sure is, I found a truck that way as well. Wasn't wanting the 12" screen but the truck was everything else I needed to have. The screen is nice for sure.

North edition you can, but that is a Big Horn trim package.
The bench is hard to find in Laramie and above, and then if you select the sport or night package you get stuck with buckets...

After almost a year and 8000 miles.
I would recommend 8.4 inch screen.
Having physical buttons to control havc and other climate controls is way convenient than scrolling through screens. Never used truck navigation. Since waze is much better option. Moment you connect Apple car play or Android auto it splits screen in two.

Seems like you could run Waze via CarPlay and leave climate controls on display below full-time to avoid any “scrolling”.

In my case, I leave the system on auto and just occasionally raise or lower the temp via the physical buttons next to the screen. Easy peezy...

Yes i have a loaded laramie with as bench and a 12. These were requirements for me.. hard to find. You cannot get color matched bumpers.. only chrome for this build.
Also no sport models, limited or rebel offer this and DO NOT GET A TOW package.. this removes the 360 view cameras and the tow mirrors are larger.

I am with you on having the bench seat so my knee doesn’t hit, I only have the 8 inch screen but it works great, I mostly use CarPlay. I like the bench primarily because I like to store my books under the seat in that storage tray under it.
