Good for a first SUV

This is my first SUV. I have enjoyed it thus far except for one problem for me. I moved and drove the car from Huntsville,Alabama to St. Petersburg, Florida. The seat leaves much to be desired. I have a bad back and I drove the 11 hours in 2 days. I feel the seat is very cheaply made. I have to trade this car in becasue the seats to me are not co fortable at all. I have driven the VW for the past 10 years. But the seat in this vehicle is not supportive enough for ones back and long drives. The best VW I have ever driven was the VW CC.

Classic design with modern features

2021 Volkswagen Tiguan S 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I've been looking at cars for over a year as I was trying to find the ONE. I thought I was going to settle with a certified 2019 BMW X3, I loved how it drove and what it felt like, however, wasn't a fan of the exterior design and didn't want to see the value of my car plummet 2 years after purchase. THEN, I came across a 2021 certified pre-owned Tiguan with less than 20k miles on it, that was $10,000 cheaper than the X3. I decided to take it for a test drive and I knew I found the one. What I liked about the Tiguan: simple, classic not-cheesy-looking exterior and interior design. Optional all-wheel drive, modern tech, comfortable ride, and decent fuel efficiency for its size. I love that Volkswagen-made vehicles don't blend in with other automakers - it seems like all newer cars are made by the same designers (Toyota, BMW, Nissan, Honda, you name it - they all look very similar). I am yet to discover it's true reliability over the years, but I did purchase an additional warranty for 10 years/85k miles. So far it's been great.
