If I'm going 40 in 6th in sport and switch to comfort my rpms stay the same

Ok,a manual would be different.

Driving a Volvo is like driving your favorite chair around. They have always made the best seats.
That said, My E90 and F23 sports seats have never been hard to drive. My record was a 12 hr. trips to Atlanta, and no back issues upon arrival.
I had an Audi A4 years ago, and those were the worst seat ever (for me).

P.S. Cruising isn't so great. Have not been able to get comfortable for long trips. My Volvo C70 was better. This is more fun to drive though.
