Bose announces comfier price on truck seat
TORONTO — If you saw the mighty interesting Bose Ride System truck seat in our Product Watch, you probably turned away when you read that the price was going to be in the $10,000 range.
Well, there’s some good news on that front. Sort of. The company got in touch with us to say that the price has since been set at US$5,995. Fleet discounts would apply.
Well known for speakers, headphones and the Wave music system, the company’s founder, Dr. Amar Bose, also worked for many years on a suspension system that’s now evident in this premium truck seat.
It replaces a conventional air-ride truck seat with a sophisticated suspension base and an integrated, custom-designed seat top. The company claims it provides over-the-road truckers with “an unprecedented level of protection from road-induced shocks and vibration."
