    We put one in our 835. It cost quite a bit.
    The old seat was a spine crusher.

      One day I decided to try a new Jeep Grand Cherokee, told dealer not to put mine too far from the front door..... sooo of course , how the h do you start this thing, then off I go. This chick talks to you, but then I’m checking her out and gonna open her up a bit down Victoria in pretty heavy traffic. Picture this: faster-faster- car starts screaming at me that I am in the wrong gear. Oh geez, what gear am I in, can’t see, look at shift, some stupid bump shift, doesn’t show gear. I look up and all the traffic in front of me has stopped. Squeeling good brakes! Closest thing to piling into the back of a cement truck. I took that thing back, picked up the keys to my old Jeep. She doesn’t try to kill me.

        Speaking of, a funny.
        For a few years now I've had constant pain in my right ribs near the spine.
        Age I thought.
        This week borrowed neighbors old JD to roll a small field.
        Shwang!! I figured out the source of my mystery ailment. 1 hr and was in agony.

          Oh it gets better,It shuts the engine off at every stop sign. That's gotta do wonders for the ring gear.

            How many times do we say, especially on new stoves, “just give me off-on button and a knob low to high. Just bought a new Samsung stove, all computer except the buttons stick out the front and every time they are bumped they turn the stove on. Only one fire now and 2 accidental turn-ons and the kitchen isn’t even finished. Oh wait, there’s an electronic lock but only for the oven. Junk!

                And I bet they don’t last 40 years like the old ones do. Lol

                  Bought a new Samsung stove 5 years ago. Fixed it 3 times. Twice the service guy came, once a trip to the city 2 hrs away. Then broke down again. This time estimated to cost half the price of a new one. Loaded it up and took it to the dump.

                  Bought a whirlpool. Salesman said oh that's not too bad. Usually they last 5 to 7 years .FFS

                    Think of your kids, what will it do to their self-esteem if their friends come over and see your stove has knobs and element burners instead of push button controls and a glass top.....OH THE HORRORS! Scarred for life!
                    Or worse yet, what will your trendy friends and people you don't even know think!?
