Air suspension capt. chairs
I just watched a British video of a MH with a horse stable built in.... 500,000 Lbs. as in dollars he said.... What surprised me was the air suspension in the drivers seat.....Now how cool is that, better yet just how expensive do you suppose that upgrade would cost??????

Semi trucks have had air ride seats for years.

Foretravel uses a Knoedler air suspension pilot seat in their IH-45 as standard equipment. But, the IH-45 does retail for $1.3M.

Check with a Freightliner or Peterbilt dealer. My brother bought two new ones at a truck dealer for his jet boat & got a Cadillac air compressor at a junkyard. They ride great but not cheap.

Max tire pressure.......
Truck driver's need air ride seats cause they don't adjust tire pressure like RV people do

Geez at that price I should be able to do both side of the cockpit. The DW will love that.
Just an after thought, but is having a heated seat that massages your back, a good idea if your tired and driving?
