Re: uncomfortable seat

It's just you. I find it more comfortable than my Murano.

Re: uncomfortable seat

Re: uncomfortable seat

i like mine. it took a while to get adjusted to the car though. coming from trucks, the seat position was a little interesting.

Re: uncomfortable seat

I'm 5'11" and there's so much headroom, I crank up the cushion height and not only do I feel like a big man - it seems to create a good posture or position for spending long periods of time behind the wheel. But mainly
I feel like a big man.

Re: uncomfortable seat

I just finished a long trip driving in my FJ from NY to KS and back. Bar none, it is the most comfortable vehicle I've ever driven.

Re: uncomfortable seat

It's you.

Took me a while to get the seat dialed in, but now that it is it's almost like a lazy boy.

Re: uncomfortable seat

At first I had a lot of trouble sitting in the FJ for more than a half hour (I have a cranky back) so I measured the seat angles of our car that is very comfortable and raised the front of the bottom cushion all the way up and the rear of the bottom cushion all the way down and then adjusted the backrest for the right angle and it's been great ever since.

Re: uncomfortable seat

You're not the only one, there are like 2 others in the history of the cruiser that had this complaint, and one guy that wanted heated seats. lol
