You guys must have the older trucks. My '09 60/40 isn't too bad on the drivers side, they will recline until you hit the back of the cab in my Reg. cab. It also has the lumbar support...very handy!!! I rode on the passenger side when my wife was driving the other day as our Malibu was in getting some 100,000 mile service work done. I don't like the passengers side so much!!!!
If I could figure out a way to get the Maibu's ('06) seats in the truck, I will agree they are more comfortable. To me and the wife, the Malibu is too low to the ground to get in and out of easily...especially with a fake knee.
