I used my jump seat today. Not because of having 6 people, but when in the city sometimes I get my wife riding next to me. The one thing I will say is if you get a jump seat and later you want to add leather seats, I haven't found a company that makes a good wrap for the jump seat.

haha I won't give you a hand for that job.

I ordered my Screw with the console, however I plan on making a custom console at some point, just need to wait to get my truck now.

I've got the jump seat, but would love the consol too?! I think I'll try and find a consol and figure out a quick attach method for swapping them in and out. However I think it's only 4 bolts already? It would be nice to have the consol on long trips when the 6th seat isn't an issue.
Any body know why they never put more storage into the jump seat? or is to do with strength for the seat back/seat belt.

I pity the person who has to walk home in the rain because you don't have the jump seat.
Jump seat all the way for me, no doubt. The console looks (slightly) better, but that's it. From a practical point of view, you can't beat the jump seat. If you know you never have that 6th person, the console is the better choice.

Looking at pictures of the center seat, the windup seatbelt takes a bit of room in the top portion of the seat.

Swapped to center console. More storage and better cup holders. I'm not in high school anymore so don't my wife it sitting on my lap. LoL

Seeing that convinces me even more about the jump seat. Now looking at that console, my jump seat sure looks better. But that's just my opinion of course.
