Back Support

[Quint]

I've generally been happy with my 2021 Ram 1500. With my 2015 Ram I drove to Bristol twice for NASCAR races and once to Denver - from Minnesota. I do have a history of back problems so I'm thinking about our Griswold family vacation this summer all the way to the west coast, Portland to LA, then back. That's two and a half weeks of constant driving. I'm worried about how my back (and ****) will handle it all. I used to drive to North Carolina all the time and did Southeast and Southwest road trips in my 20s when I did all of the driving.

Any recommendations for a seat insert that works well in the Rams? I know it's like asking for your favorite shoe suggestion, but would happy to hear what has worked for others. I want to try one or two out ahead of the trip.

I find the seat considerably more comfortable than my old Tundra (which did need a pad) and find the best solution when my back is playing up is to turn the heating element on - works wonders on a back that took a 60' lead fall climbing in my late teens....

Have you considered the Seat Jackers? Not a back pad, but makes significant improvements in seating position which helps with back pain. I have them, as do quite a few members here, and I love them.

second DDI's Seat Jackers.
They are one of the reason why I was able to drive for 6+ hours a day for 50 days for my trip to Alaska and Arctic.

I too, have back isssues (which puts me away from riding sports bikes)
