Oh I know I'm captain chairs all the way. Need to smash people in that back row! Lol

I hope the truck actually takes a few months to be made and come in cause then I'll miss a lot of the winter mess.

Damn. Sorry guys I feel like a db. Never thought that with this kinda truck. I guess I'm in a diff part of my life cause I need pass through cause I still am using 2 car seats and can get other people to third row without taking out a car seat.
In your case that's a great idea

We didn't want to lose the extra seat, but we swapped out our bench for buckets as it's a pain when your kids have to either flip the bench seat every time or hurdle the bench to access the 3rd row (which is done daily), especially when carseats are involved. Everyone has a different situation...in our case we need the pass-through. I'll probably be looking to sell our bench here soon as I know we won't ever be using it again.

My kids informed me that bench seating was their one and only criterion for my purchase. I would be outcast from the family if I had gotten a bench seat.

I notice now, though, how often we end up with one extra person in the car for a total of 5. That brings the 3rd row into play, which is certainly not a problem. It occurs to me though that the middle seat on the 2nd row bench offers more utility than people think.

^^We went forward with the bench thinking it would be workable and nice to have the extra seat but it was a major pain given our situation with 4kids. I also feel that the buckets are nicer when hauling additional adults around vs the bench. We tried the bench but after 4mos we made the switch.

Got any pics of what it looks like with the 3rd row removed
I would also like to see pics. Our 2016 Tahoe replaced a 1996 Tahoe. For the most part the 3rd seat is a negative because folded it raises the floor in the back. Once or twice this year we have used the 3rd seat. The second row bench seat was our pick since we expected and it has worked out that the 3rd seat is rarely used.

I searched long and had and went 200 miles to get an LTZ with a 2nd row bench seat. More seating space and better hauling with the full flat surface. So there is a Market :)
