I was just slightly hunched up while driving, but it was barely noticeable. It was only after driving for an hour or so that I would get this really annoying kink in the back of my neck. I broke that seat in and played with the adjustment controls off and on for a week and the problem finally resolved itself.
I don't recall ever having any such issues with other cars, and the Charger V8 RT that I had prior did seem to be roomier, so maybe there was a transitional factor at play there as well.
I have long legs and big feet. Toyotas always place the steering column too low for my feet, and the seating situation isn't ideal either. I feel like I'm too far forward. I can drive Hondas but the seat has to be all the way back. Porsches are always too small. Old VW cars are too small in the front... like 70s and earlier. I can't say that I've ever had a problem in a Volvo although I haven't driven anything even half-way modern and the old stuff had pretty... rudimentary... seating. I've had problems with some Hyundais. I've driven a Lotus and it was too small too, but a very small car in general.
That's front seats, though. Back seats, I don't fit in a LOT of cars. Literally not enough area for my feet or my head hits the ceiling, legs hitting the seat in front of me even if I'm scooted all the way back.
I can't say I've ever had this problem in an American car except maybe the Chevy Chevette and the Pontiac Fiero.
