Replace Captains Chair

I want to replace my driver seat with something other than a "Captain's Chair". I want something that is a "drivers seat" that is not some overstuffed gargantuan piece of fluff to put my "Dupa/Tookus" into for a long trip. Well supported on the leg sides, good back lumbar. Like a Recaro style racing seat, but for an RV. Any ideas out there?

If you haven't already, suggest you try that "overstuffed" seat for a few hours before you spend anything to replace it. All that foam helps cushion the ride.

Thanks for the "overstuffed" idea. But the issue is not butt comfort, it's about sliding around in the seat. I would prefer a fabric seat, with good leg bolstering to provide support and prevent slipping in the seat. I've been from one coast to the other and through the country, and just think it's time for a change.

Maybe a pickup truck seat. The ones I have and had were comfortable.
