Seneca front seat

Does the front co-pilot seat swivel around so it can be used at night?
Thanks,
Chris

Not in my 2014, and I don't believe they have changed it in the newer models. There is about a six to eight inch drop in the cab that would probably hinder it turning around.

ID:	31132I have never been in a Seneca but think the 37FS would be perfect for our family. I was looking at pictures of a 2016 and looked like the seat base was so different that I wondered if it swiveled. See what you think. I, too, wish it would as it would take away some of the value of a Class A. The Dynamax does, I believe

Thanks for your quick replies.

There is a video online from Kuhl odyssey that shows a 36fk that he installed swivel seats on. The positioning is slight difficult with the lower cab area being about 4-6 inches lower. It certainly provides seating when the coach is full

I picked up my 2018 37 TS today. You can use the seat at night to look out the windshield. But no, it does not swivel

Those are the stock Freightliner air ride seats. They do not swivel.

Yes Mr. Kuhl is quite talented with all his Seneca mods. I think it was in the seat swivel video that I also learned about the tangle of wiring beneath the driver's seat that sometimes leaves the factory improperly secured. If so, there is a risk for shorting out a circuit and you'd spend a lot of time tracing the short because it is under a seat.
