Dodge Nitro with Buddy Club Racing Spec Seats
The Dodge Nitro is a compact SUV from the Dodge division of Chrysler LLC. Launched for the 2007 model year at the Chicago Auto Show, the Nitro shares its platform with the Jeep Liberty. It is assembled at the Toledo North Assembly Plant in Toledo, Ohio. This Jeep facility is part of a complex including the Toledo South Assembly Plant, home to the Jeep Wrangler since the 1940s. The Nitro went into production in August 2006 and went on sale in September. The Nitro is also Dodge's first compact SUV since the Raider was discontinued in 1990.
The Nitro is priced at US $19,885. It is one of the first modern Dodge-branded cars on sale in Europe since its introduction in early 2007. All Nitros are available with rear-wheel drive; part-time four-wheel drive is available as an option. The top-line Nitro R/T with all-wheel drive sells for $27,630. It was Dodge's entry-level SUV until the 2009 model year, when the larger, car-based Dodge Journey crossover SUV arrived to be priced below the Nitro.
Dodge is touting the car's "Load 'N Go" sliding cargo floor as a major selling feature. Similar to a system offered on the Saab 9-5 station wagon, the floor can be extended through the rear hatch by 18 in to ease loading.
Another purported attribute of the car is its SUV/hot rod styling blend, complete with unmistakably pronounced fenders.
If you are truly looking to style up your Nitro, then good custom seats are a logical upgrade. There are many aftermarket companies out there that produce quality bucket racing seats for either road or track use. Prices can vary from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars for top of the line seats depending on your taste and the size of your bankroll.
Beside the bling effect of having some sweet looking Racing Spec seats in your vehicle there are some performance benefits. Because racing s seats are made out of lighter materials than your factory seats they reduce the overall weight of your vehicle which is always a positive for tuning.
Racing Spec Seats are universal for all vehicles; however, all Racing Spec seats will need to latch to a seats rail, which is car specific. Make sure there is a rail available for your vehicle, or otherwise you can customize your stock one to fit your aftermarket seats.
Buddy Club Seats, the maker of the popular Racing Spec seats is one of the heavy hitters in the aftermarket racing seats industry. Many others try to match the quality of craftsmanship of the Racing Spec seats but few succeed.
Buddy Club's original racing bucket seat frame is designed to give full support for any driving condition. It is light weight and yet super strong. Racing Spec seats are made with only the finest materials. Suede is used on key areas of the seat to avoid premature wear and tear caused by the factory 3 point seat belt. A high quality fiber mesh material is used on the seating surface and wool mat is used on the back side surface for better air circulation.
Buddy Club Racing Spec seats provide body support for reduced fatigue and best driving position. The weight of these seats is only 11 pounds. A unique buckle frame technology was used to produce one of the strongest bucket seats available.
