Got my 2002 yellow cat on Fri. 7/14. The only regret I have is not getting one sooner! Even my kids think I'm COOL now!

Please some advice from you veterans.
I'm probably a little larger than your average cat owner (if any Cat owner is average!). I'm 6'4", 240 lbs.
My back bothers me after about 20 minutes of driving my precious new toy and it never bothers me driving other vechices. Don't get me wrong, I really love the car and I know it's not going to ride like my Tahoe, but I want to enjoy a ride that is over 20 or 30 minutes long. I saw on an earlier posting that someone advised a kidney belt on longer trips.

I'm taking my cat to Myrtle Beach next week, which is about 3.5 hours from here. I don't want to seem like a wimp, but does anyone have any advice as to how I can comfortably ride that far other than to simply suck it up?

I have a piece of foam about 3/4 inch thick that I put behind the small of my back and it seems to help. I am 6' 2" and I do not think the seats are comfortable but others claim that they are.

Randy - actually we have several guys much larger than you. There are two adjustment levers on the driver's seat side,,,,,,,just have to adjust it several times until you find the right combo,,,,,,,maybe leave tilt-wheel in a little more up position while out on longer cruises. JMO

Randy --

I'm 6'7" and 230 lbs. I use the Alley Cat patented method of comfortable riding -- I adjust the seat all the way down, and all the way back.
