I am not that big. 6' 250 lbs. right now and I barely fit. When I shut the door it hits me in the shoulder. I can not sit upright.

Does anybody else feel squished in?

Perfect size for me. I'm 6'1" tall and about 185lbs. Even with a hat and large jacket, it still feels fine.

6'1" and 270. No issues until 3 hours or more. Gotta get out and stretch for a bit every 3-4 hours.

6'2' and 240. No issues with fitment. Actually very comfortable to me even on a long trip...course I got the seat all the way back/down and the seat back reclined a little... :wink:

5'10" and 155 lbs - nope, no problem :SOMBRERO:

But the seats are horribly uncomfortable. Too flat / not enough support.

I'm 6" and 225 lbs, with the 2.75" lift I can get in and out while flat footed and when I'm seated I have to slouch ever so slightly to get the best visibility.

I'm freakin huge. :lol:

6' 2", 290lbs. I do wish the seat was an inch or so shorter, but I've still got about an inch and a half of head room (I'd have another two or so inches if I didn't have a sun roof) and plenty of room in the shoulder/hip area. Overall, I'd say it's less cramped than my last vehicle, where my legs were almost hitting the kick panels on the dash. It would be nice if the steering wheel adjusted upwards a tiny bit more, and had a telescopic feature to bring it a little closer, but pretty much every vehicle I've driven is like that.

It may seem more cramped if I wore a heavy jacket, but I haven't had to do that yet.

I wouldn't call the cabin particularly spacious, but for the vehicle size it's pretty good. I was impressed that there was one more inch of rear knee room behind the driver's seat than my previous vehicle, for passengers. Although I do have to remove the head rests to get the seats folded down.

I have always wished they made more vehicles with telescoping steering wheels. Seems most vehicles are made for short legs and by the time you get the seat back far enough for your legs to be comfortable, I can barely reach the steering wheel.

I have to be able to straighten my legs out regularly or I get a terrible pain in the knee.

For some reason I always feel like I want to slide forward out of these seats.
