Does anyone know if they come in multiple sizes?
We have a 96 F250 Extra Cab. The rear bench seat is only 11" deep if I remember correctly (It might be 14").
We have our second baby on the way and need to be able to fit a carseat (preferably 2) in the back seat, but the bench is not deep enough to safely buckle one in. (The other issue is that my Husband is very tall and keeps his seat back all the way to drive, so we are buying bucket seats for the front so he can keep his seat back.)
**And if anyone in Oregon is selling a pair of Bucket Seats for the front, and a bigger bench for the back, I would LOVE to buy them!**
Thank you for your help.

I feel your pain. I had to deal with the same situation with just one car seat. It was our only vehicle that transported me, the wife, our pre-teen daughter and the car seat for the baby. Just had to make do with the situation. Good thing I had buckets seats installed; the car seat was placed in the middle of the rear bench seat where there was enough opening between them for the car seat to clear. Another advantage I had over your situation; I'm 5'8", so no need to slide the seat all the way back.
You may have to find a car seat with a base that will fit the bench seat and place the other behind the front passenger seat; seat moved up enough to provide clearance for the other car seat.
BTW, I'm pretty sure that all F-Series Supercabs are the same size regardless of weight-carrying capacity (for that year group at least).

One other thing, the foam of the bench will not hold up to continuos pressure from the base of the car seat. It'll start to compress to the point that the seat will tend to sit loped sided. I countered it by placing a piece of plywood between the two, larger than the base, to spread the load. Just make sure that the seat doesn't slide around too much.

Thanks, is that a 150 though? they have less space than a 250. I understand the theory behind creating a bench out of wood, but that wouldn't be safe for installing car seats in.
I'm really kicking myself for not buying a 4 door. (Kinda late now, just paid the truck off)

Here is a thought.
You get in the back and put the car seat in the front

That's another way around the situation. But if you're anywhere over 5' tall (or short, depending on your perspective), it'll be an uncomfortable ride during long hauls; even more so for those with longer legs than torsos.

The point is there are two car seats, and w/ 2 benches, you can fit ZERO car seats in the back. With a stick shift, you can't put a car seat in the front center set. make sense? and like someone else pointed out, the back is tiny when the driver is tall and have the front seat all the way back.
