Help on finding a car with good seats and high roof
Hi guys. I'm suffering from a back injury that just seems to get worse and worse.
I am unable to sit in my own car now without pain and discomfort which I believe is due to the slight inclination of the seats (tilting down towards the back).
So I was wondering if anyone knows of any cars that have seats that are more parallel to the floor or maybe more ergonomic seats with good back support.
Also because I am tall, I need good head room. If I put any kind of seat cushion on my current car I am touching the ceiling.
Thank you for your help.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) hi there

if you need good fuel econ as well then Nissan Cube is the only choice for that stadium like head room. Driver's seat has seat bottom angle/height adjustment and the seat is soooo damn cushy like you won't believe it.
When you park it up against a RX350 or other SUVs you will find that the roof is comparable in height, but the seat is at a normal car like position, yielding you extreme amount of real estate inside, vertically speaking.
I sell a lot of Escapes and Flexes exactly because of older or disabled people who find they have the most supportive seats. It's worth checking them out.
Anything remotely sporty is going to have a bucket type of seat.. which is exactly the kind of seat you think you have now and which will give you back pain if you have a back injury. What you need is a truck-like seat, like what an F150 or Escape or Flex has. (NOT designed to be a sporty vehicle) You may need to explore beyond sedans in order to get the kind of seat you are looking for.
I find mid range cars have good seats, my mom has a Civic like thing, and the lumbar support is just plain shit, i can't drive that thing more than 20-25 minutes without getting a sore back, back's sore from a combination of two accidents.
What i would recommend is anything with full adjustability and i find leather is more comfy than cloth seats.
Even between similar cars like the G35 and the 350z the seats are quite different. i never get tired in my G35, even though it's a bit sporty-ish, but my point is any mid range or entry level luxury car is what i'd aim for.
