I specifically bought a 2nd-row bench 'Gator. I can carry one extra passenger, the 3rd-row entry is the same (only on one side), I can carry up to 4' x 6' sheets and much larger cargo, and sit on the 3rd-row with the second row folded flat and change/put on boots when I go skiing. The 2nd-row bench reclines also.

The comparison? The center console would be in the way of all of the above.

I do have to admit even though I too want quad captains, the second row bench is very large and it is nice to be able to fit 3 child seats there.

Quad captains is a nice idea, but don't you lose the fold flat capability of the bench seats? Also, I don't know about other years, but the bench seats in my '99 recline making for a more comfortable ride.

3 kids 2nrd row bench

I can see where the bench could come in handy for the 3 kids.. I only have 2 myself. And I had no idea that the bench reclined (open mouth insert foot) snoVVman, I don't have a console between the captain charis in the 2nd row. and Smitty 1019, my 2nd row captians fold flat forward. I don't lose any cargo space what-so-ever. I guess it all comes down to what is more convient.. just as long as it's an EXPY. nothing else really matters

I am still awaiting a reply as far as if a swap can be done, Captains chairs for a bench seat, are the slots under my carpet for seat feet and belt holders?

OK, I just got off the phone with a mechanic and a salvage yard, the swap is possible and very easy: compatible only with 99-02 Expy's for my 2000.
I will swap with any Good condition 99-02 Tan leather Expy.
I can not be without a seat for any time ( due to 3 children) so I will need your seat first or maybe we can meet some where.

Please contact me if you want my Tan Leather Captains chairs( Excelent Condition)in trade for your Tan Leather Middle seat, all seat belts also.
