Default Bucket Seats v. Bench

Ok I decided to ask you guys what are better to have in your truck. Me, I have a 1985 GMC Sierra Classic shortbox 350. I'm thinking about taking the bench out and putting in bucket seats. I thought I would see what you guys think are better, so heres a poll. Vote please

Thanks,
Jake

Dude, totally go with buckets. Benches suck for support during spirited driving.

yeah, see what I was thinking of doing is taking the bucket seats out of a 1980 Chevy Blazer. Instead of the center console im putting a bass tube in the spot to replace the console, or i might put the tube in sideways and put the console in front of it, but i dont know if the console will get in the way of the 4 wheel drive shifter.

I must say I am a fan of a good ol' bench seat. Thats what Im sporting in my truck right now and I love it. Im a bigger guy and the buckets just dont fit me as good as the benches do. They are a little tight and feel like they are pinching my sides in. And mine has the nice folding arm rest/consule so I can get it out of my way if needed.

A bit of a bigger guy? Jesus man... How big have you gotta be to not fit in the Silverado's ample seat room?

I'm 6ft, 245lbs and I have all kinds of room.
