6'3" barefoot with a 6'6" arm span.

I have plenty of head room. Keep steering wheel at mid-point, height-wise. Then, if I place my right foot between the pedals, I can get my right leg under the wheel easily in order to get in and out.

Our 2006 4_runner is about the same,but I wish the seat went back a little further in the 4Runner.

Wow! I didn't expect so many tall people to reply. I guess the system does work - great height gives you confidence, therefore you don't need to prove your social standing with a big and/or expensive car.

No way, man!
I came down from Expedition myself. Now you can bash that gas hog all you want, but when it comes to spaciousness - Expedition was HUGE inside.

I'm 6'5, I know what I'm talking about. When I pulled driver's seat all the way back, I could hardly steer - I was that far from the wheel!

maybe its the new one you have before... but I feel weird and dizzy riding trucks coz of its higher center of gravity or maybe the suspensions SUCK!

Welcome to the forum.


6' 220 - enough space, just wish the wheel telescoped out a bit.

True.
But Yaris leaves a lot to wish for.
