Mega Cab rear seat - VERY uncomfortable

we put about 1000 miles on the Mega in the last 5 days.

so on one trip, i stretched out long ways on my side in the back seat, and the seat belt buckles KILLED me!!!

man, those things poke you right in the side, anyone found a way to force them down so you can lay down back there?

i missed 4 hours of good sleep because of them a'jabbing me in the keester..

nah, we left the house, and wife was driving, so i had to set up for ~20 minutes to help her get thru traffic and town and out on the highway.

had under seat full of stuff, had dog in front, rear seat had cooler and stuff in it,

so was too late to fold it down.

they stick up a lot. might try a blankie next time.

just really chapped me. been planning a good nap back there since i bought it, and it dug into my side & ribs real hard.

Yeah, he's serious. A little tid bit of information to help you out with the crying... he was in the navy. They have fluffed pillows and $1000 beds. Also, once you reach a certain rank, they send you to a school to learn how to whine better...(E-8)

Sorry, Senior. Had to get you a little....

Hey, NF.. you lay on them... They suck.

I think that Dodge is a few years behind in the comfort department. Maybe they should contract Lazy boy to make their seats...

Don't give old (pun intended) 04 too much grief... he knows how to handle a weapon or two, and how to send a mail bomb...

No help but when this happens in any other car I put all I've got into shoving them down into the seat... Usually good for a couple hours till they pop back out.
