Consumer Reports

then yeah, i really do think the FIT scored high only because it's a freakin' Honda.

I totally disagree with Consumer Reports. The seat is extremely comfortable, even on an 8 hour trip, and I found no issues with any of the other stuff they bitched about.

Agreed. Everyone that sits in the Yaris instantly compliments the comfort of the seats. Then they laugh at the polkadot stitching. Can't win 'em all.

While my passangers have always commented on how comfortable they are, I get really uncomfortable in the drivers seat after more than 30 minutes. I think it might be because I'm petitie (5'1") I'm having a hard time finding a comfortable position, I have the optional armrest but I'm so small that my elbow isn't anywhere close enough for me to use it.

5'5" here and I find the ratio of steering wheel to pedals rather short.

If I want to drive with good control of the steering wheel I have to get so close that my legs are cramped up, so on a long drive my legs starts to hurt from having to hold my foot in an odd position.

The steering wheel really needs to come back a few inches or the pedals move forward a few inches. Either would cure the problem.

It's fine for city driving, but I think anything over an hour and I start to really notice it.

Same problem, only worse because I'm 6'1". Someone on here is working on a spacer to bring the steering wheel closer to the driver. I hope they figure it out.

i'm around 5'5", i think. the seats are pretty comfortable, my only complaint is the C-pillar is kinda big. i sometimes have a hard time clearing myself on the freeway.
