    I loved my 2nd Gen sport seats, with lumbar support. I feel like I'm wallowing around in my 5th gen seats.

    My thoughts exactly. Although my 2020 does have lumbar adjustments.... I can never get comfortable.

    I assume this means a Porsche 993?? I drove Porsches daily for 30 years before getting my 4Runner a year ago. I planned for years to eventually get a more practical vehicle for my old man retirement type years. Anyway, I could and did drive my Porsches all day long, they are very comfortable.

    This seat info is helpful as I have issues I am still trying to figure out, not sure if the seat jackers might help but checking. My problem is I seem to get some numbness in my feet and lower legs in the 4Runner even on relatively short drives. This may be a little worse because of some meds I have to take but not sure, but this is my concern, not back issues.

    I also don't like the 4Runner pedal cluster, wish the gas pedal was a little closer, the gas pedal seems way to small for my taste, and sometimes I feel like my right foot gets slightly caught behind the brake pedal instead of smoothly transitioning to it. Anyone else have similar issues? I've searched for larger pedals but haven't decided on anything yet.
