Seats hurt my back - am I the only one?

[XUOHTX]

I have the marine grade vinyl seats. I've tried every combo of adjustments and I can not get comfortable in these seats. I've seriously thought about selling because of this. I know I'm in the minority but there must be someone that has faced this same issue.

For context I'm 6'1" 192lbs.

No issues. I have a Black Diamond with MGV. I find the seats very comfortable. I am 6'2 and 195.

Do you have leather or MGV?

I haven't taken a long trip yet, and I've only had my 2 Door Badlands for a couple weeks. But my MGV seats are pretty comfortable so far. Maybe the seats are a better fit for us shorter people? I'm 5' 8".

6’3, 240, very comfortable. I’ve driven 12 hours straight. No issues. Actually, unusually comfortable for an off-road vehicle.

I’m about the same size as you and I hate my leather seats. The part that makes them so uncomfortable is the weird missing piece of seat in the upper back. Hits me just right to make it super annoying. I also find them too narrow, but I’ve always driven full sized vehicles. I’m driving my truck way more than the Bronco, big comfortable seats. I’m gonna have to put some covers or something on them.

6ft, 210 and they're easily the most comfortable seats I've ever had. My longest day has been 14 hours and they still felt great.

rockin' the cloth seats in mine. they are incredibly comfortable, almost at par with a Lexus ES330 I drove a while back (rode like a waterbed). I've found the bronco seats to be really comfortable. almost couch-like, even when wheelin'

No issues with my Badlands MGV seats and I’m 6’6” and 220 (was 240 when I took delivery). My truck is a 2016 GMC 3/4 ton diesel crew cab with Denali trim and I can’t honestly say it’s more comfortable than the Bronco.

Same ht/wt, cloth seats, think padding and seam patterns are the same tho(?)

I can live with them, no back pain, but the way the top of the seat back has a sort of bolster (above the center panel insert) that sticks out a touch and seems firmer than the center panel, it encourages hunchback for me.

Preferred my 2003 dodge 2500 seats to these, even at almost 20yrs old when I sold it

My $0.002

I find them comfortable, but not overly so. I wish they had a little more give. Probably the second most comfy seats I've had. My GT350 seats actually the crown in that regard. Those are fantastic.

It took me a good while to get a position that's comfortable for me. I have them reclined unusually far back w/ almost no lumbar and that seems to be the ticket. I normally like to be more vertical but the shoulder bolsters are very aggressive. I'm 5'10 but longer torso than leg.

Try adding Desert Does It seat lifters. Adds a slight angle to it!

I’m 6’4” 245lbs. Have a black diamond with MGV, I love the seats. I find them quite comfortable (except for how hot they get when I’m the sun). I’ve put 1800 miles on it in first 2 weeks of ownership with 2 4+ hour rides.
make sure you adjust the lumbar support and see if that helps.
