Standard Captain's Chairs vs The Executive Second Row

[Joey76]

Hi, everyone! I just found some good ones about the seating configurations for Escalade IQ. There are two main options:
The standard Captain's Chairs (chosen by the majority of customers), which come with:
- Heated Seats
- Passenger and cargo flexibility
- Folds flat-improved cargo functionality
- Easy 3rd-row ingress/egress
- Maximizes 3rd-row space
- Executive Second Row
- Optimal choice for families

and The Executive Second Row which offers a first-class experience prioritizing the second-row space. It features heated, ventilated, and massaging seats with 14-way power adjustment. There is also a center console with a Rear Command Center, stowable tray tables, and dual wireless charge pads. But there is a quite downside with this option. It reduces the space and accessibility of the third row, and it doesn't fold flat, reducing cargo functionality.

In simpler terms, the first option is more versatile and more practical for most users and the second one is more luxurious but compromises on third-row and cargo space. What do you think and what is your choice?

Thanks for sharing. I’d lean toward the standard Captain's Chairs for their practicality, especially for families.

I think many of us would choose the standard one. "For the family" - Vin Diesel
