Gen 5 - any quirks or idiosyncrasies?

[Voice of Reason]

There's noticeably more seat cushion on my 14 ballistic nylon seats vs my 13 basic leather upgrade seats. But neither seat ever bothered me.

Addendum: I highly recommend the 18 speaker sound system...had the 9 speaker system & was just as bad as my Gen I...I can't comment on the 12 speaker system but the 18 speaker system sounds very nice...

Cheers...

There have been reports of doors opening by themselves on the 14's. A TSB is not out yet. But is expected soon.

Many of us Gen 5 owners find the seats uncomfortable because the pivot point is 6 inches off the bottom. This is stupid. I realize that some folks don't mind it but a lot of us use a small cushion for the lower back that fills the "hole" that exists there because of the design. Heck one guy even brought his own cushion to the Viper experience on Monday in Vegas. Other than that, no quirks at all now that software is up to date.

I don't find the pivot point to be an issue, since that is roughly where your back actually pivots anyway. It is the complete lack of lumbar support of any kind that is the problem for me. I have a cheap pillow I bought at Wal-Mart specifically for this problem in my Gen3. But I am going to go ahead and just get the Sabelt lumbar cushion. I wonder if Venzano can add any material in there for lumbar to make it more liveable?
