just took delivery of an '04 sierra SLE 4x4 with the "custom cloth" seats. i ass-u-med they came with lumbar support, as every GMC i've ever driven has the familiar knob on the side of the seat. however, they have no lumbar support. these seats are terrible. they're too soft and unsupportive and my lower back hurts badly after a 120 mile trip. i was used to the soft seat in my tundra, but these things are a joke. where can i get better ones?

I have leather seats in my truck that are fully powered, I think like 8 way. I have power lumbar and side back support.

welcome to the great seat world of GM.. none of their seats are comfortable I have power in the silv and they still suck.. and the trailblazer seats are the worst things I've ever sat on, you can't drive 30 minutes without your back hurting.

??? I always thought the GM seats were the most comfortable ???
does anyone else think they're comfortable?

I dont like the trailblazer seats, no place to put my elbows. I LOVE mine though. I prefer them over my dads lexus or girlfriends moms bmw.

seems like with GM it's either the seat back or the butt cushion that sucks, but not both. the butt cushion on our '03 envoy feels like a wooden school desk. i know you fellow college students know what i'm talking about. however the envoy has nice lumbar support and is good on my back. it's the complete opposite on the sierra... the butt cushion is comfy but the seatback is torture. my lower back seriously hurts after driving this thing.

tundras don't like to be lifted. mine never aligned properly and ate a few CV axles and a dozen or so CV boots even with a 2.5" lift. the sierra is staying stock.

:word: I like the 10 year old seats in my blazer better than the seats in my mom's 99' ES300. That thing is just too small...especially on 18 hour trips..

I like my seats just fine. Chevy/GMC seats are 100x better than Ford seats. My mom had a '96 Mustang, my dad has had 2 Expeditions ('97 and '00) and my little bro had a F150. The seats were horrible in all of them. My mom now has an '00 Mercedes E320, and I hate those seats too.

All I know that is that I don't have any complaints about my sierra. Keep in mind that I've driven it all the way to Mexico. I guess some people have different needs to be comfortable than others.

My truck orginally had the base seats in it and I thought they were nice for being the base seats. I upgraded, needed a center console, ended up using avalanche seats. Ford seats SUCK! Acutally, the whole interior sucks, well, i guess the whole thing sucks.

are those going to give me lumbar support? i'm not concerned with the fact that they're cloth, i'm concerned that they're unsupportive and hurt my back.

I have the "base" seats in my 03' Silverado and I love them. I've never been a fan of the Chevy "ls" cloth seats. Also 10 years down the road they shouldn't be worn out like alot of the cloth seats end up doing. My seats don't hurt my back or a$$ after driving about 100 miles. I was told that they added more padding to the base (maybe the ls seats also) seats in 2003.

How come your seats dont have lumber? you have any pics? Cause I am pretty sure that the all the LS and higher models have lumber so do you have "base" model seats?

My dad's sierra has better seats than base (has the console, and different material), but no lumbar support.
