gangsta lean or stiff back nerd? how reclined is your drivers seat? jw POST!

im wondering if you like your seat in one position everyday or do you change it around alot. i used to change it alot but lately i keep it in on position maybe changing one click forward or back.
do you
A: gangsta lean-almost fully reclined so that your chin is as high as the bottom of your window and no1 can really see you driving
B: grandma lean- fully upright beyond what most would consider comfortable just so that you have proper posture
c: average- not completely upright but close, you like to lean back casually so your comfortable but dont look like a spaz
D: between average and grandma-cant decide if your casual or practical
E: between average and gangsta- cant decide if your poppin dudes in the hood or waving politely to neighboors.

id say most are probably C or E im normally C or between C&E

why does sitting upright make you a grandma, cause it doesn't look cool? I sit upright cause i can see more and its easier to control the car....

when i see people reclined all the way i pray they slide under the belt in a accident. And the morrons that sit in the middle of the car with the seat back all the way back but with their back not on it...god what a bunch of homos

I'd say probably "C"; my back hurts if I'm too upright, but I agree with the comments made about leaning too far back -- it may be cool for some, but I like to see where I'm going.

i also think its dumb when people lean back so dam far and sit back so far.
but sorry for hurting your feelings with a harmles joke even though i say grandma because i mean alll the way forward a lil beyond what most would consider comfortable and safe. too far forwards can be deadlier than leaning back more. is it nice to eat airbag for breakfast in an accident, i doubt it. and if you read sitting upright isnt the choice i call grandma. upright isnt the seat totally forward, upright is normally a lil more than a 90 degree angle relevant to the bottom of the seat which slopes down a little bit so yes upright actually looks to be leaned back a bit.
