So, what do I know...

I've always considered the headrest more of a safety device to help prevent whiplash in case of an accident...

It does both. That headrest is so soft and comfy, like a pillow!

My Camry headrest was like a brick! lol

I used to get a back pain after a long drive but today I didn't get any after adjusting the headrest. Might need to try a longer drive and see if it really makes a difference.

OP, I noticed the same thing when I had an F-Sport IS350 while my prior 350 was being serviced; great support but poor comfort. Thankfully the seats in the ISF cars are quite a bit more 'cushy.'

Took another 6 hour roadtrip to NOLA. Adjusted the seat slightly and it was way more comfortable. No soreness. Would be nice if there was more cushion on the seat bottom like an inch or 2 more foam. On another note, I was driving a 2013-14 Avalon XLE and the seat and ride are more firm than I would expect or want for an Avalon, but still very nice car. Have a 6hr drive back to houston in the GS tomorrow. GS was way quieter at hwy speed than the Avalon.
