seat comfort

[Stan H]

I find my 21 sport s to be pretty good. Although at on point early on, I was thinking about seat jackers to tilt the front up a little. Procrastinating and never done it so now I'm use to it.

OH and @MeanGreen, we are better lol jk

I am seriously considering having my butt portion built up or trying to do it myself ir using a new cushion adding to it then stuffing it into the original cover.

don't own a gladiator yet but will buy soon. probably a one or two year old one. i prefer leather but i will admit the cloth i have in my Hyundai santa cruz is very robust! In you guys opinon which trim level has the most comfortable. i've heard its the mojave...is that true?

I have a Mojave with cloth and a Rubicon with leather. Hands down for me, the leather seats in the Rubicon are more comfortable, but as others have said, this is a personal preference and your backside may have a different preference.

I have a 21 Mojave with Leather seats. I have a 5-5 1/2 hour trip for work I drive a lot. For me they are very comfortable. After 2-3 hours my butt does start to get a little sore. I stop, top off the fuel, use the restroom, then finish the trip. The short break is perfect, with no more soreness the rest of the trip.
It’s not the seats, it’s me. This has always happened my whole life, no matter what I drive or ride in, just some vehicles my butt gets sore a lot sooner.

Before buying my Mojave, I test drove a Sport S with Max Tow and a Rubicon. The Mojave gave the best ride and had the most comfortable seats. I do have a cloth interior and I added seat risers that I bought on Amazon and they made a big difference. I have driven cross country several times and other long overlanding trips and have never felt uncomfortable.

I wonder how an X model with the power seats where you can tilt the butt part back or forward would compare.

No! Do not try to do butt injections at home! Only a professional should do it.
You can end up with infection or worse - shifting butt filler.

My Buddy has Ruby x ,they don't seem any better to me.

Lol, I am sure people have done that but I was thinking of a rejuvenation of the seat cushion butt portion

I don't like my seats for long rides.

2021 High Altitude with Nappa leather seats.

Totally agree. The leather doesn’t seem to have as much give as cloth. My butt cheeks get achy.

I have a 25 Mojave X.
just to state stats: male, 6-2, 255, athletic build at 56.
Seats are great, no issue of any kind. Nobody has expressed any issue with seats. Sounds person to person.

2020 JT Overland here. Leather interior, no issues. My wife has a bad back most of the time too, and she thinks it's comfortable.

So far, an over 350-mile ride in it has produced no issues, for us at least.

6'6" 205 ..athletic build With bony ass 53 , I like long walks next to the water usually with a fishing pole in my hand and moonlit nights next to a camp fire roasting hotdogs.. IMHO seats are good for 1.5hrs max especially if you are driving in constant S curves bumpy roads etcetera etcetera..

Interesting takes on seat comfort. Everyone should list, as a few did. Their personal fave comfy car seats. I have 2 favorites....the seats in my 98 Silverado are fantastic, and the 2015 up factory ford mustang seats are too. Might be a cool idea for a fabricating company to offer seat adapters from/for various make autos.
