2019-2021 Silverado Console vs Bench Comparison in Detail

Perfect for road head 👌🏾

[@jrgarcia6896]

What an absolute legend 😂

[@phatmeow7764]

funny how the car industry try to portray bench seats as dorky, outdated, etc but real drivers sayin its actually more comfy especially for people with longer legs and make exiting the front more versatile....interesting...

[@traviscochran6280]

For me the biggest advantage of the bench seat is the extra room for my legs. The console with bucket seats is just to tight, it's hard to drive. I have a 04 GMC Sierra with the bench and that's comfortable. I also have a 14 Tahoe PPV that has bucket seats but no console. The Tahoe is ok, but the dash drops down into my lag some and makes it tight. If the dash was higher setting like the 04, it would be perfect. I don't get why almost every vehicle currently made has to have a console in it.

Because Millennial like their shifters on the floor, it almost makes them feel like they could drive a stick!

I have a question I have a single cab Silverado 2020 can I remove the center console? And can I just keep it like that without adding a flip up console just keep it empty maybe add a pillow or something just for the meantime until I find a flip up center console if you do have one for sale I will buy it off you

Im buying a 2021 silverado this month , & i actually want a center console but the basic LT does not come with one . How about we trade?

[@brianneo8253]

For the bench seat, do you get the under seat storage and flip up storage on all trim levels? I remember seeing a bench seat with no extra storage in it

[@tntwit]

From what I have seen, the WT and Custom (or GMC Pro), do not have the extra under seat storage in the front. From what I have heard, the 2020 WT and Custom trim levels didn't even have the storage in the top flip up console. It looked like it had it, but apparently did not open. I think it was then added in 2021 and up, similar to the older generation trucks.

How do you put the f seat back down

[@jrfairclough4291]

Okay, this might sound stupid, but I can t seem to find an answer anywhere online, and the dolts at the Chevy dealership in my area say they aren't sure. Here goes, are the lids the same size on both the full console, and the jump seat console? Just talking about the lids, and only the lids.

[@Carterchevroletok]

Just went to go check and here is what I came up with. They are completely different and not interchangeable. The full console lid is about 14” x 14” and the flip bench is about 14” x 16”. The console has a chrome push button to release the lid and the flip bench has a plastic pull lever. The console has no storage on the underside of the lid built in and the flip bench one does. The hinges on the console are on the left and right side of the lid and the flip bench hinge goes across the entire middle like a laptop hinge. The backside of the console lid is flat to tuck in between the cup holders and the flip bench backside is rounded slightly to look good from the backseat since you can see it. The top side of the lid has a insert for like your cell phone etc and the console is in the middle surrounded by leather on all 4 sides while the flip bench is only surrounded by leather on the sides and back and the front side is a large plastic piece that is part of the pull level to lift the lid. Hope this helps!

Can you replace the hard console and seats with the bench 40/20/40 seats?

[@tristencochran3374]

You want to sawp the console for a jump seat it can be done and you can swap the jump seat for the center console its just extremely hard to find one of the consoles

[@armagua9771]

Bench seats are better in my opinion they give you the leg room.

[@vr4787]

Not having the middle seat have storage in either the seat or arm rest was a big no for me in the GM lower trims and the center seat is hard as a rock. My Ram 1500 Classic is a basic trim but it still has storage in the flip down seat and is very cushiony. GM cheaps out in the weirdest places.

[@idc8640]

The Bench seat won’t come down any solutions??

[@Carterchevroletok]

Just gotta ask but did you pull the lever to release it? It is located on the side of the flip bench in between the passenger side and flip bench seat. Go to 1:15 of video to see exact location

[@DKLabs99]

I’ve had both. I like the bench seat. Don’t really miss the console. Took a bit to get used to it but I find it more comfortable

[@stevenguerra4076]
