The seats. I got the air ride seat and recliner passenger seat. They were the seats that were in the new IH 45. They are amazing.
I also bought the recliner to match. 
They have a Spanish woven leather insert and the FT logo too.


John.
Good choice.
Thats the Knoedler drivers seat Phil Bostrom & I put in 2 years ago & it is the best investment I have made.
When you hit a bump the coach goes up but the seat does not.

Barry and John,

That floating feeling?  I think it is a result of the out flow of currency from your wallet :).

Not at all George. It is so light from the last few fill ups that I do not think I noticed it....

I have to say that I love the air ride seat. It just bounces you over the worst of the bumps and you bottom out on a really serious one but that only happened two times in the last couple days. Both times it was in construction where they just mill the road and leave a 3 inch cliff.

Add just a little more air and raise it a tad & that should stop that.

John, Just for giggles, I would advise against the air ride seat in a air ride RV.  Speaking from my experience with the MCI bus, it also has air ride.  I recall the double bump of the air seat.  Yes add some air and learn a new way of riding, bouncy - bouncy.

Also, yes the Motorcader event went very well, very glad to have met the gang.

Yes it is bouncy bouncy but I like it.  I was sorry to miss the rally though.

John,

Don't forget to post a photo of the step covering - those came out amazing, especially the way David integrated them with the solid surface risers!
