My 70 Sierra Grande has buckets and a console, but I'd always thought the middle console flipped up into a third seat - hence the "buddy bucket".

Was there such an option in these years, or are bucket seat trucks 2-seat vehicles (notwithstanding you could put your redheaded stepchild on the console, but it's not safe).

If not, why are they called "buddy" buckets?
