Katie's leg going numb

I had a 1993 Oldsmobile 88 with the power seat and I could never adjust it to a comfortable position and my leg always became numb when we took trips in the car. We found the 1990 Ford Aerostar we owned much more comfortable for us on long trips. I don’t like to sit almost on the floor with my legs stretched out at an uncomfortable angle.
I never understood why auto manufacturers made cars uncomfortable in the interest of style. Back in 1959, my parents had finally gotten ahead financially that they thought they could afford a new car. Their good car was a 1954 Buick that had about 100,000 miles. When we tested a new 1959 Buick, it was so uncomfortable due to the low seats that were also hard in the middle due to the driveshaft tunnel that we were happy to get back in our old Buick. My dad told the salesman he thought he would drive the Buick another 20,000 miles which he did. The next year he bought a Rambler because the seating position was so much more comfortable for him than the Buicks of that time.
I find the seating comfort in a full sized pickup truck much better than most automobiles that are available today.
