Back from my post #375 in this thread...
FWIW, I'm not quite 6', and I know this whole thing comes across that I'm (and perhaps a few others too are) some sort of alien creature or abnormal looking people. I don't think that is the case, but if I tilt the seat back far enough that I can see the whole instrument panel (meaning my eye level is then lower), the steering wheel then won't come out far enough for my arms to comfortably reach; then I try to move the seat forward but my legs get scrunched-up touching the brake and acceleration pedal, and my right foot does not make as comfortable transition between the two without me getting charlie-horses in my calves or thighs after a while. With V7.0, I already have the steering wheel up higher than I desire so I can see the top of the new speed digits and all of the AutoPilot indicators on either side, but will miss most warning indicators above them or certainly to the extreme left and right of the top of the display that are hidden by the wheel (upper left of Nav, some of Energy or Trip on right, new Sensor displays for say left front bumper are all cut off). In this position, shoulder comfort is a problem on longer trips, and writing this, I remind myself of a short cartoon character sitting in the seat, driving the car with their hands too high above their head. I really do think it comes down to what I highlighted in bold above, for just a few of us, and UI design could consider this to have less important icons and information at the top far left/right extremes to help some drivers with this perhaps not-average body frame. My Dad was a similar build with the same shorter legs challenge, but 3-4" shorter in overall height than me, so did not have the dash visibility issues like I seem to on more modern cars that try to use all the space they can presenting information -- unlike very old cars with say 3 analog dials that wouldn't be a problem for any of us.
