What belongs up front depends on the trim level of the truck.

Most likely a bench seat.

I think only the fully loaded XLT Lariat's has captain chairs and center console, other than that it was a bench seat.

You'll have to find a bench seat out of another super cab cause they're unique, reg. cabs and crew cabs are the same as far as front bench goes.

If you have captain chairs, why don't you want to keep them? I would think they would be better then a bench.

Is yours currently setup like this (This is my super cab)?

Grey or tan interiors are the best, blue and red suck. Some red ones look fine I guess if you like them but I wouldn't buy a red interior truck.

My favorite interior colors pretty much for any vehicle, is:

- Green
- Red
- Brown
- Tan
- Blue

Reason why I don't like grey, or even worst black interiors, is simply cause it makes an older car or truck, look "modern" but other than that, it's fine for me, i'm not really picky about colors.

My 1990 F250 was originally charcoal grey on grey, and onces restored, will be that color again, and keeping it's original interior!

That interior don't look bad XLT, but if I had a choice between red or grey, I would get grey.

I don't think my measuments would do you no good Felix, all my trucks are all regular cabs.

The blue interior one with captain chairs, that's one that's for sell on the internet, but other than that, never owned a truck bigger than a regular cab.

Actually the front bench in a crew is slightly different than a regular cab, the front the back is 'fixed' meaning you can't tip it forward. The base is identical though I think...though I should go peek before I say that, I can't recall for certain. I recall thinking that I could likely play musical seat parts in my crew and swap the two seat portions with their backs, giving me a less worn seat in the front. Not something that has got done yet though, so don't know if it is correct or not (my thinking that is!!)
