Ok, is it just me, or do my seats have soooo many options i always feel MAYBE the way i am sitting ISNT the most comfortable?
Almost every time i get in my car, i drive for a while, then think, hmmm i wonder it there is a more comfortable setting. i have a daily setting memory1 and a freeways setting , more layed back and lower setting2,
I am jsut curious to know if I m the only one who does this? or maybe its just my OCD kickin in..
btw, i like it the best just a few inches lower than all the way up, lower part tilted back just a little, and the the backrest layed back, but the curvy part of my backrest tilted up so it contours..
how do you like it?

One of my patients complained that whenever he placed his cell phone under his balls while driving, it hurt him. And that was his presenting complaint!!!!!!!!

i have the same problem. always changing the settings. if i cruise for long distance it's usually farther away and lower; in the city it's higher and close to the steering
i've heard that the right position should be when you don't see the hood and when your arms are not stretched all the way
anyways, i wish i had comfort seats

My seat is as LOW as possible, with the butt tilted back. this gives me a supportive sport feel. I feel lower to the ground, almost like in a corvette. My seat is tilted back, with the upper part tilted forward all the way forward, so I can have a lounged position, but not have to lean forward. I never understood the "gangster" seat all the way back so you have to lean forward. my seat is far enough back, but i dont lean forward. My headrest is up a bit, lines up perfectly with my head, and the butterfly adjustment on the head rest is curled in to give the seats a unique look. side bolsters are also adjusted all the way in.
Passenger seat is set to match.
