Wink I hate my seats!

I've owned many cars throughout my 30+ years of driving, and I can honestly say the seats in my '08 GT have got to be the most uncomfortable seats I've ever sat in! They're flat, and have no support whatsoever.

After about 20 miles or so, my @$$ is sore. I have to constantly change my position to try to get comfortable. I've tried all the adjustments, but they're of littie help.

Does anyone else have this problem, or have any suggestions?

Thanx!

If they're leathers, I'll buy 'em off ya haha. I honestly don't have an issue with mine, can drive 1000 miles to Ohio and back and not have issues as long as I take the wallet out of my back pocket.

If you're really having issues, you're pretty much limited to buying aftermarket seats. Recaro, Corbeau (sp?), etc

The 06 Saleen seats are terrible. Like bricks. And Im too big or too fat to put my *** between the brick bolsters.

Trade your Mustang in for a Buick?

But seriously, I drive mine over 400 miles per week just to work and I think it's perfectly fine. Is it a Cadillac? No. But that's not the intention of Ford's design. It is however a night and day difference compared to a 2013 GT premium. The interior/seats on that bad boy are AMAZING and comfortable!

And to anyone suggesting Recaros. Have you ever actually sat in Recaros? Not very comfortable. They are RACE seats, not designed for comfort.

I agree on taking the wallet out of the back pocket! I've got the lumbar
support aired up a little, and I'm fine.

Lumbar aired up, no issues. They're actually the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in other than Recaros
