Hello All,

I'm seeking to sell my 2010 Tahoe and get a 2018-2018 model. I have a full 2nd row now and I want to keep that feature. I see that is not hardly avail in the newer models. I find it on some base models but I'm seeking a fancier model.

Does anyone know if the full 2nd row was part of a certain trim level, etc? Not avail at all?

Here is a premier with full bench in second row, so it must be an option. But will certainly be difficult to find...

There doesn't always seem to be correlation between trim level and the 2nd row bench. When I was looking to buy a '19 it seemed to mostly depend on what the dealers were ordering/what they felt would sell the best. I had to scour the interwebs for a few months to find a second row bench in the trim level and color combo that I wanted. A lot of times the description would say bench but the pics said otherwise, which was frustrating. You'll find it, but it might take some searching. Good luck.

Thanks. I really like the full seat since it does make it easy to take 5 people (including you) somewhere.

I have a 2018 LT with a bench. Looked high and low before I found it though. Had to travel to a different state. Has pretty much every option as a premier. They are hard to find

Pretty much every prior rental vehicle will have second row bench seats

You can find the second row bench all over eBay. Some sellers have 500 + all we’re removed from brand new police vehicles nationwide. Most are very cheap.

I flew from California to Oklahoma bought a new 2018 Premier came w/ second row Captain option. Stopped off in Phoenix Arizona on my drive home and bought a second row bench seat from the seller on eBay had close to 300 for sale. Obviously you’ll give up the heated seats

Yes that’s what I did. It’s easy and I sold my Captains seats online got $1400 for them... I believe this is the seller I got mine from

Yes, that is the first thing that pops up on ebay. You've given me hope!!
It’s simple If I remember correctly I just required trimming a 2” section of the carpet around the support leg on the center seat

I was in this same situation. I wanted a Premier Trim but wanted a bench seat instead of captains. Bench seats do exist in the LTZ/Premier trims, but you need to look at every photo to find them. I ended up settling on a new 2017 LT2 with Signature Package which came standard with bench seats. Its nearly identical to the Premier Trim sans cooled seats and magnaride. Good luck!

Guess I scored with my 2019 LT suburban with the luxury package, only one in the lot with 4x4 and heated second row bench.

I ran in to the same issue when first buying a 2016 Yukon Denali and then again when buying my current 2019 Yukon Denali. When I asked the sales manager at the dealership why there weren't any Yukon's in stock with a second row bench he responded that "nobody wants them". I beg to differ... So in each case I had to order the vehicle the way I wanted it - With the second row bench.
