Well...This is what I have observed...it may not apply to you since you are talking about the width of the seat...however:

I found when I first purchased my truck that my azz would be sore after lengthy trips...I had my seat adjusted like I would in a car (which is a lot lower than the truck). The seat was reclined back slightly....I adjusted my seat to a more "upright" position and haven't had a problem since (which takes the stress off your tail bone). In other words I got rid of the "gangsta lean" that my seat had.

So I dunno if you are a big guy you may wan't to try and lower the seat and put the seatback in a more upright position and see if that helps you.

My '03 is an XLT with electric Capt. chairs....electric on both sides and they are great. Agree, armrests are too short but electric can be had on the XLT's too.....
