Anybody activate the "Big Guy" seat option?

[JimmyTwoTimes]

huh?

If you use electric motors constantly they tend to run out. Like how all those '80's cars with pop up headlights no longer pop up.

My seat is nearly all the way back as it is. I'm only 5 10". How close are you 6'4" guys sitting?

 

[SVTFreak]

6'2" but I like to be closer to wheel when driving. LOVE easy entry/exit. Side advantage is when I carry a clipped knife, it doesn't catch the wheel either.

I'm using this feature even though I'm only 5'11 because I find I rub against the seat bolster much less when entering/exiting.

I have the premier trim package/redline seats and from what I've seen in other posts, I'm not sure how long the leather on the bolsters will hold up to even moderate wear.

Only thing that sucks is my leg barely reaches the clutch to turn the car on! -_-

If you just hit the power button 1st no clutch, it will move the seat forward, then press the clutch and start.

That just makes too much sense lol. I'll give that a try for sure.

I... don't get how people sit normally, I suppose. When I'm driving, my seat back is already touching the rear seat bottom; don't know how it could possibly move back to let me get out... and I'm only 5'11".

All depends on how deep you are, too. I'm 6'2" with long legs, my seat back doesn't touch the rear seat cushion.

base model bashing day

Yah my non premium model only gave me $3000+ in my bank account...its sad

It's only for models with memory seat. I have Premium, and don't have this feature.

Ever think maybe not everyone likes the same position you do? I can't stand being that far away. Less control. Go look at every professional race driver and see how close the wheel is to chest. I don't like it that close but stiff arming the steering wheel cause your only 1" closer than your arms are long sucks to me.

Yay more people who think their decision is the only correct one.

Well, I have premium (le) and still have more than 3k$ in my account and have a low low note. How about them apples? Somewhere there's someone right now with a 300,000k$ car and a whole lot more money than both us put together.

I use this feature and I really like it. I have it in another car and use it as well. I am not too worried about it wearing out. If I was indifferent about the feature, I would turn it off. I like it so I use it. Took me a while to find it.

I am 6 3 and do not put the seat all the way back....I think I have alligator arms.....

 

[B.Crowder]

This feature should be called the "Short Spouse" seat option. I don't have a problem getting out from my preferred seating position; it's just difficult getting in after my wife has driven the car without bending down to move the seat back.

read the manual.

Why would we want to do that when there is this awesome forum to ask questions in! HaHa
