    You would see the same thing on a furniture forum if everyone/ 10 million bought the same couch or chair.

    I had the same problem and bought 1" risers from QuikFix. I haven't thought about front risers yet.

    Numbness from my sciatica was worse in my 2006 Tundra.

    I just got home from a long road trip with hours in the driver's seat. I found that adjusting the lumbar bolster helped a lot.

    Will agree that the seats are comfortable, im 5'11" and 210, no complaints at all.

    The sport and offroad with premium package actually come with real leather. The real leather is only in the middle of the seats where you sit, the rest is softex.

    Idk whats up with all the tough-guy comments

    The seat makes my lower back ache, even with the lumber support fully engaged.

    Im thinking about getting one of those lumbar support pads things but theyre so ugly

    I make sure I like what I buy before I sit back and complain about everything that’s wrong with it.

    So I take it you've never been unhappy with a purchase, even though you've done all the research and making sure?
    Little things wrong aren't deal breakers when you consider what's actually on the market for some products.
    If I need a reliable tool to work every day, then I buy a Milwaukee. If I need it for one thing and don't care if it breaks, I go to harbor freight.
    Reliability > comfort

    Keep in mind that these are "head restraints" and not "head rests." Their purpose is to protect you neck in case of a collision. Which is why they are angled as they are. I have a friend who did the same thing as you and I pointed out that the way he did it increased his risk of injury during an accident.

    Of course, it's up to you to do what works best for you.

    Right. For me, my head is still fully resting against the headrest driving around, so no change in safety and a massive increase in comfort.

    If it's backwards, it's going to change the angle at which you head hits the restraint and how much you hyper extend your neck.
