Should I get ventilated seats?

[brooksb]

This is my first truck with leather seats. It was great over winter but as it's getting hot in the south my legs are sticking to my seats. It's driving me crazy haha.

Would ventilated seats fix this?

They do work better than not having them. However I wish they would blow air instead of sucking air as I thought the seats that blew air through them, worked better at cooling.

I also live in the south and yes, ventilated seats help here. Remote start prior to getting in on a hot day will cool the seats with AC and ventilated action making a more comfortable initial entry.

I spent almost 20 years living in Florida and Georgia. The time down there pretty much turned me against leather seats forever. I would never have them again ventilated or not I don’t like them

agree...

thought they "blew air" through the seat but instead it sucks air and isnt as good as they used to be but its still better than nothing

Only reason I got the trim I did. Love them but wish they were even stronger/cooler

In 16 bought a 16 lariat in 18 bought a 502a Lariat for the better ventilation seats, traded it off for a 19 Platinum for even better seats.

Fast forward to 22 traded off the Platinum and now drive a cloth seat 22 XLT 302a with column shift and console. Going into the 4rth year of ownership and WILL NEVER go back to leather.

My 24 KR ventilated seats perform really nice . No issues.

Yes. I live in the southwest. They are a must have. I will not buy a vehicle without ventilated seats.

oh man...they suck air? Where does that air get ducted to? This could be fun after a massive lunch at <insert restaurant of choice that induces fragrant body gas>. I'm sure my wife and back seat passengers would approve.

I love them. Its a cool breeze for the nether regions.

Regardless of what method they use to ventilate, they work. Get them.

Yeah not sure if ive ever seen seats that blow air, im sure there would be issues with moisture and mold/mildew forming inside the seat. Better to pull away ur body heat than blow it out back towards you. Much needed in south texas right now

1) get ventilated seats. 2) Nanoceramic window tint is a godsend. The top of the line XPEL stuff is amazing.

Is it effective without having to resort to very dark windows? I prefer being able to see at night.
