One stone = 14 lbs.
that doesnt seem like a very accurate form of measurement.

on a lighter note (no pun intended), I weigh 215 pounds, which is equal to 351... eh... US Dollars?

...depending on the exchange rate

A stone is a little more accurate than a ton.

You usually weigh something like "15 stone 5 lbs"

No, standard.
Try out the sport seats they are much, much more comfortable. Reviewer have said they are the best seats available in automobiles.
Most people here think you are saying that the sports /comfort seats are not comfortable, so people are getting confused.

I have alot of trouble with the seats too. My legs bother me when I get out of the car, from the edge of the seat.

Definitely need memory seats, my wife is 5' so if I didn't have memory seats and she drove my car I would have to kill her. As I said before, I am 6'4" so there is no way we could share ANY adjustments.
HAHAHA Yes, perfect. +1 for sure. The person who invented/patented memory seats probably owns an island off of Puerto Rico and is sipping Pina Colada's as I type this.
