Seats in the new trucks uncomfortable ?

My buddy has an 07 and after 2 hours of driving you can feel the bars under the seat. Anyone else notice this ?

I noticed the same thing on my 05.
I also found a fix for it here http://www.innertruck.com/3rdgenfrontseatfix/

I previously drove a Lincoln Mark LT truck, and my Dodge Ram seats are way more comfortable for me. My back would start bothering me while driving the Lincoln, and I always seemed slouched while driving. The firm Dodge seats work great for me!!

I have to admit that while firm, they are very comfortable for the long haul.
Softer seats make my back hurt

has anyone tried the seat mod on a 2nd get seat. Adding the carpet looks like a good idea because the wires on mine are starting to cut into the foam pretty good

My Ford's seats are ok, but after sitting in the Dodge, the Ford's seats don't seem so nice anymore!
