Default F@ckin seatbelt

Maybe it's just my truck. But d@mn I hate the way the seat belt operates. It's always locking up on me when I'm trying to put it on if I'm already driving. And the WORST is when I'm trying to head check, and the d@mn thing is stopping me from leaning forward. I've come to the point that I think it's more dangerous for me to wear it then not wear it. Thanks GM, .

I hear ya. The bastards are soooo sensitive to movement, they hold you in your seat too tight. Some older cars and trucks had some type of adjustment for this problem. We will have to see if the new trucks do too. Just think what would happen if your truck was in an accident and caught on fire or went into the drink. It may cause you to loose a few seconds of escape time!!

With my hotchkis(stiff) suspension, mine locks whenever I hit a good sized bump so I have to push myself down in the seat to get it to unlock. My little brother bitches about the passanger belt everytime he gets in the truck.

My wife has the most trouble with the passenger seatbelt. That one tends to lock her up a lot and she gets pissed. My seatbelt does it also but not as much as the passenger side seatbelt.

Yeah, mine's been acting up here lately too.

Everytime I try and move a little the seatbelt tightens and the cloth seat "grabs" my pants.

You know what though. Those seatbelts will keep you from flying all over the place in an accident...Don't ask me how I know.
