I'm the only person I've ever seen take a corner in a truck in a manner that produces preceptable lateral acceleration (though I saw one flipped onto the roof in the center of a cloverleaf onramp once). 99.99% of truck owners do 20 MPH over the speed limit when the the road is straight, and below the suggested cornering speed when things turn.

I've done fine on bench seats pushing the cornering limits.

Make them buckets if you must, but 3 across belongs up front.
