Default Seat height

Just test drove a my06 and the seat height seemed higher than my old my99. I saw somebody write that there was changes. Can somebody fill me in? What year did the seat become so high it's like Driving a bus?

I don't think there was a height change. Your 99 was probably "broken in" or someone had done the factory seat lowering mod.

I put 06 seats in my 02 and noticed the same difference. I think there is more cushioning in the 06+ seats causing you to sit a little higher. Or like they said, ours could have been more broken in. lol
