Mack Antem Seat

I'm in a 2019 Mack Pinnacle, which has the new Anthem interior, steering wheel, column jake brake, etc...and I find that the seat is super close as well, the entire cab (mine's a daycab) is just super small, narrow. I like all the functions and where they sit, but you are right, everything is really close/compact in. I'm 195, 5' 11" and even with the seat all the way back is too close for me, I don't know how this big dudes do it. Knock on wood, I haven't experienced any shoulder pain/issues but again...I only drive it once a week. It's definitely different than the Coronado interior, thats for sure.

 

Yep too tight for me too and I'm not a big guy. Unbelievable

 

Terrible shoulder pain and uncomfortable seats in my 2019 Volvo. I don’t know how the seating position compares to the Mack but the Volvo is wider cab so wider space between the seats. I am 6’7” and don’t have serious leg room complaints. Maybe because shoulder pain distracts over any leg pain.

 

no adjustable driver side arm rest. That will cause shoulder pain depending on the size of driver. Its not a one size fits all world but Mack has gone decades without proper armrests. Driver also has to sit ####eyed to use arm rest on door depending on the size of driver...MACK are junk, not driver friendly at all

 

Yes one has to be 4'11 and have a rather narrow posterior to drive the mack anthem

 

In mine there’s a stopper that keeps it from reaching all the way back. I used to fit my hand between the closet wall and the back of the seat. After I removed the stopper bracket, the back of the seat actually touches the wall of the closet. About 6-8

 

I pulled the junk OEM seat from my new-to-me anthem as soon as I got it home and put my Scheel-Mann in, which has a base from a Legacy, which I modified to go a lot further back. You do sit more upright and 'over the wheel' in the Mack no matter where the seat is. Not sure how else to put that.

Anyway, problem solved for me. If you aren't in a day cab then modify your seat and base and life improves. My seat has both armrests which just fit inside the door. Left armrest sits right up against it. Doesn't bother me at all.
