I agree. Drop the curves. Give me a bench seat. Don’t want an interior that looks like a car. Make it SMALL - something noticeably smaller than my 2008 F-150. I’m probably a freak because I want a manual transmission with a granny gear, not a 10-speed automatic. And if they want $30K+, hell will freeze over first!
I realize government-imposed rules prevent consumers like me from having any choice. Get the government out of the car design business and Make Trucks Great Again!
BTW - still haven’t forgiven my son for totaling our 1998 S-10 pickup. It had 150K miles on it and was running like a champ when a drunk “undocumented worker” hit him sideways. Son was fine, but lost a good little truck. Damn California!
Bench seats are history. The reason the bench seat is gone away is that the mfrs would have to install another air bag system to accommodate the third possible passenger, upping costs and complexity. Making room for the extra air bag would make the dash even more crowded....................
