The seats are not as comfortable as my trucks seats were. They are pretty basic but so is all of the interior of the Wrangler. It is made to get dirty, not look good or be comfortable. see full Jeep Wrangler review
2007 4dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic RWD
Still small, despite the increased size of the vehicle. see full Jeep Wrangler review

They are harder than I would like. I came from an F150 with the luxury package and the seats were amazing, these sears are hard and could be improved upon by being softer. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review
