I drove from Houston Texas to Naples Florida about 1 1/2 months ago. My back felt so horrible when it was all done with. I'm almost 20, so its not like I have a bad back its just the seats are not meant for long journeys.

Well I posted about my trip to Alabama and back and the next day I drive my car on a ten minute road trip and a rock popped up and chipped the nose on the hood. Man that stinks but I guess that is what you get when you drive these days. Dang it!

Weird. I was medically discharged from the military because of a back injury, and I can drive in the Z's seats just fine for 8+ hours.

Now I feel like a baby. Hah I really don't know man, it did not feel very good but I have always had some lower back pain from football in highschool, but it hasn't flaired up in a while.

Like I said in an earlier post about all of the miles driven by my wife and I. I have a very bad back problem and go the "Back Breaker" once a month. But the 'Z' doesn't seem to bother it at all and I will be 68 in November.........?

Driving position, seat position, and other factors may contribute to the comfort level as well.
