This thread can be confusing LOL! Basically if you compare year for year, truck and burb, the seats are exactly the same except that the burb upholstery goes all the way down in the back.

For instance ... If you took a 71 pick-up full foam style seat and stripped it down to just the bare metal, and you did the same with a 71 full foam style burb front seat, you would not be able to tell the difference, because they are exactly the same.

Thats what Im getting from all the threads I read. As far as a folding bench seat in an early burb, I wonder if they just did it like the non folding seats in 68's? No reason to have a folding seat in a burb ... Just a guess though =)
