6'2 - 215lbs , drove from Pittsburgh to assateaque island last weekend wasn't bad. I just put my left foot behind the clutch pedal to stretch out and I have no cruise control. 6 speed 07. I jack the seat up to get a different angle for my ass and neck half way there. Lots of shifting up and down the hills, that may help cause I'm constantly moving. Lol

6'5" and 300 pounds of solid muscle (LOL) - I am very comfortable in the Jeep. I do notice my rt knee hitting the center console but it does not bother me. Maybe because I am used to it in just about any vehicle??

6'2" 200 lbs here. my body touches everything in the jeep. lol seriously I have to crouch sometimes to see a red light if i'm first at the light. got a lil window sticker now that lets me see the lights without leaning over. when the top is off - its no prob. take the doors off and I have all the room i'll ever need. otherwise I just deal with it in the colder months. to get comfortable in the seat, i'm so far back that using the steering wheel can be a lil out of reach. only issue is shoulder cramps up a bit on long drives 4 hr plus but no matter what I drive it usually gets uncomfortable after that long anyways.

6'3" 230 and two minor issues, totally my fault and not Jeep's:
1. I let my left knee rest on the door, especially when wheeling, helps stabilize myself. After a few hours of contact and banging up against the door, it can get sore.
2. If I'm wearing a heavy boot, my right ankle can get pretty sore/tired if I don't have the opportunity to use cruise on a long trip (think like winding, mountainous highway).

6'5'' 310lbs and I'm very comfortable driving my '12 JKU Sport. I've had 3 other YJ's and sat comfortably in those, I had a Nissan Versa previous to my '12 JKU and fit pretty well in that too.
