This might sound rather stupid or silly. But, those owning and driving a 2018-2021 Mustang GT Premium, does your right leg or thigh ever get tired while driving?

Curious, if most of you rest your leg/thigh on the middle console while driving? Thus, avoiding your leg/thigh from getting tired.

Mine gets tired in any car that doesn't have tall enough thigh support. I have to keep my seat all the way to the floor because the front of the seat is highest in that position. I also have my seat as far back as I can and still operate the clutch. This keeps my right leg extended and resting on the seat, instead of having to hold it up your self.....which leads to leaning it against the center console.

Yes, but after long rides, like several hours.

I found that rising seat cushion front helps.

Not the least bit silly or stupid. Happens to a lot of us especially on longer drives. Checkout thigh extenders on Amazon or eBay. Something like this might work for you.

Thanks. Just nice to know that I am not the only one.

Took a bit to dial in the seat but I do a 4.5 hour drive non-stop with no issues. I'm 55 and there is a little more fatigue than there used to be. But I've found its all in getting the seat angles right for support under my thighs.

...nay, nay I say.

However, this is the reason I got rid of my '20 Scat Pack............ :like:
most uncomfortable position, NOT as good as the Mustang

Do you typically drive with your wallet in your right rear pocket? After doing that for years, and stopping, my muscles basically defaulted to having my right hip slightly elevated. My right thigh and groin would get really sore (I swear, pulling my groin muscle hurts more than breaking a bone ever did). I had to consciously think about my posture to correct it.

Huh, my wallet never has enough in it to make a difference. But seriously, a bifold wallet is more comfortable than a trifold. I too end up with the seat as low as it goes. Something about the seat bottom shape has always been a little uncomfortable to me.
