i was just telling my wife yesterday how comfy i thought the truck was.....BUT i don't spend nearly as much time as you in the truck. i might spend an hour in the saddle at one time. i haven't had the truck on a road trip yet. i too have a cloth interior with the 40/20/40 seats.

 

I'm not really uncomfortable, however I do find the seats a little too narrow.

 

What he said.

 

Probably has to do with the amount of time in the saddle. I've driven some long distances in both cars and trucks and eventually the butt, hips and legs start to complain.

However, like wide_body, the short trips have never been a problem.

 

I think Leather seat covers would give a firmer support for the Behind. Next time opt. for leather.

 

I spend 2-3 hours a day in my truck and I find the seats to be very comfortable.

The back seat on the other hand is like sitting on a brick. Thank goodness I don't sit back there on a regular basis

 

My seats are leather and I find them to be very comfortable. The adjustable pedals help quite a bit in getting the proper seated position.

Those that think they are narrow, how big are you? Honest question.

 

I would hardly consider myself wide...I am 6'2" 200lbs. :thumb:

 

on my last trip from Mi to new york city I thought it was really comfy when the highway was nicely paved. I slant also, but when I straighten up it helps more.

 

I don't think my size is an issue, only 5'-8" at 180 and I do have leather seating. I just find it difficult to sit for that long a time. I can go several hours but the few times I've done 4-6 or more hours as the OP mentioned, sitting just gets really uncomfortable.

 

I agree they SUCK, have leather in both units 64/40 in one, buckets in other, going to low rider air-ride seats they use in the big rigs.

 

I dont mind them one bit. If you want to feel uncomfortable seats buy a dodge. Those seats are like sitting on a bench at a baseball game. Ill sit in my truck often times 5+ hours a day and I have yet to have an issue with the seats. I do take my wallet out of my back pocket when I drive though. That may be something to think about trying to see if that helps any.

 

Years ago when I was a lift truck operator, I was having issues with my back/hip as well. My chiropractor told me to lose the wallet at work. To this day, I don't carry a wallet very often, and when I do I can feel it in my back and hip area. :ditto:

 

Yup, any time I'm driving more then a hour or so I take my wallet out of my back pocket cause it digs into my ***. Makes road trips way more enjoyable now.

 

I have 2010 seats in my 05, I love them. Waiting on my center console, but the seats are comfortable, not quite as much so as my 05 cloth seats-they were a bit wider. I agree that the backseat sucks-The most comfy backseat was the 99-04 bench that didn't fold up/didn't split. That thing was like a sofa compared to the newer ones!

One thing that helps me is to tilt the seat as far forward as possible to take the pressure off the underside of my legs-the back of the seat up, front of the seat down. With the power pedals, and seats, I can get pretty close to the perfect driving position.

 

im 6'6" 270 and they are really confortable to me...

 

X3 for the "Not having anything in you back pockets" ie. no wallet! Your back with thank you.

 

I find my seats very comfortable but maybe thats because my wallet is so much thinner since I traded in my Ranger

 

:hehe: Too funny.

 

My drivers seat bottom doesn't seem to have the same support it did when it was new.
I agree with the others ... nothing in the back pockets, especially needle nose pliers.
New foam and covers are available from Ford, price isn't too bad but it's a bit of work to install.

Corbeau has nice seats, I've been lookint at the LG1 ...
Corbeau: LG1

 

I have leather seats and i have a bad back and on short trips of 2 or 3 hrs i`m ok, on longer ones i keep the seat as low as possible and use a gel cushion that i got from a medical supply store used for wheelchairs it is amazing, prior to that it was vocodin and a 6er of bud

 

i don't particularly care for them either. I drive 7 hours to Ohio and each trip my butt and hips just plain hurt. For me their not good seats for long trips. Butt i love everything else about the truck.

 

I love the bench cloth seats in my truck. I could have a brick in my back pocket and still be comfortable.

 

I think the cloth seats are more comfortable than the leather-only reason I have leather is it's easier to clean.
