Now that I took out the back seats, should I take out the front passenger seat?

It'll help but how often do people ride with you? I'm sure dates wouldn't be so happy with that situation

Depends. Ever want people to sit in it? Wanna put huge bulky stuff in it?

Thinking it'll help mileage? Forget that.

If it were me I wouldn't bother, but you can make your own pick

I take the passenger seat out for big loads, and leave it out until I expect to have a passenger. Having it out makes a much more versatile space.

hyperyaris -

I have driven without the front passenger seat and I like it. It makes the interior "feel" bigger, for what that's worth.

I just wish I had a "fast release" mechanism to make it easy to uninstall/install. It's a PITA the way it is for my car, so I haven't done it.
