He means driving any distance on a rigid bench seat is hard on the body. Even driving extended distances in a suspended seat in a suspended cab is hard on the body. (My wife did her thesis on vibrations in the spines of commercial drivers.)

My dad and I drove 2600 miles cross country in a rented 26 foot Penske truck with a rigid bench seat. 12 hour days for 5 days. It takes a physical toll on the body.
