Cooled Seats are Next Gen

Nearing 1000 miles and I finally decided to try the cooled seats today. Immediate a tiny seat motor turns on and within a matter of seconds I am sitting on an ice box. As a huge advocate for the heated steering wheel to be implemented, these cooled seats are really next gen.

My heated steering wheel works great. The cooled seat works like crap.

They aren't really "COOLED" seats. They are VENTED seats. It is just a fan blowing air up which can be cooled IF you have AC blowing to your feet. My father in law's truck does have cooled seats, an AC unit is connected to it so even if you don't have the trucks AC going, you can still have AC cold seats whereas in the camaro, you cannot.

You also do have heated steering wheel if you have the vented seats 2SS / 2LT. Left corner of the steering wheel is where you turn it on/off. I absolutely LOVE the heated steering wheel!

Whaaaat? I love my cooled seats. Makes seats that'd give 2nd degree burns tolerable in about a minute.

My wife used to have a Lincoln mkz. It had "cooled" seats, I feel that these are just as equal. Even though they are just "ventilated".

Cooled seats in our car work just great. Now if we could just remember to use them. It was four plus hours to make the complete circuit on Woodward Saturday and we never thought to turn them on.

The guys saying they work great live in climates that don't get hot.

In a hot climate they really don't cut it.

They work better than the Gen6 Mustang. Challenger & Chargers work the best so far.
