Ya know...I was wondering about this too.

I'm 5'1", so tend to keep the seat a bit higher so I can see better, and keep the back pretty straight as well.

I found that in the past month, I've actually had to adjust it higher again, twice--and I know I haven't moved it! Heck, I've even lost weight and it seemed odd that I was having to readjust it...

Not a big issue, but did feel like I was shrinking too.

Well I think it could be you that's sinking not the seat.

I could be wrong, but what I notice is during the morning drive to work I can see just fine out of my mirrors. When i go home at night I think that the day has worn me out so badly that I have shrunk down or fatigued my body and my mirrors no longer line up correctly. After a good nights sleep I am back to normal for the morning drive.

Now this is just a therory and I am in no way an expert on body fatigue.

I notice a difference in the morning also. I fit in the seat differently depending on what I'm wearing, too. Tight jeans make me slump more and then the mirrors are off.

I like Brad's theory!

I'm just hoping I don't have to get a 'booster pillow' like I needed with my S10! My friends would laugh seeing me pump that up before grabbing onto the "oh jesus" to hoist myself in!
