    You're sore after only an hour? Can you sit anywhere else for more than an hour or is it just in the truck?

    If you're willing to fork out some cash, replace the seat. There are some really good quality seats out there.

    It's probably the way the bar is designed, I just stand up, or order some hard liquor too. Or both

    this from you...
    so you had to sit down for more than an hour doing the web master stuff, how did you manage to sit all those hours and not have a butt--ache..????

    you are a company driver, changing seats is not an option for you.

    powder up that butt. maybe buy a cushion. beads may help, but do not count on it.

    I have found truck seats to be firm and comfortable. Seats will have air ride and will have the option to swing forward and back, like a rocking chair. I stop every few hours to stretch my legs and walk to the bathroom and back, and walk around the truck.

    I used to keep my diaper as full as I could stand it for more cushion, unfortunately I had gang green regularly.

    All kind of seats and seat pads. Truckstops sell a nice gel seat cushion for $80-120...Use your points on it
