My steering wheel seems to be just a bit too far from my comfortable reach . Is anyone else having this problem ? I should say I am 6’4” , I have my seat back as far as it will go and I have the wheel set as far forward and down as it will go. It still seems a bit far.

Second: I am 6'4" myself and I have no problems. Your explanation makes no sense to me. If it is "too far for my comfortable reach", to me that means you need to be closer. Move the seat forward or readjust steering wheel closer to you. Unless of course I am missing something in your explanation.

I think you are missing something. Sounds like OP is some sort of T-Rex with long legs and short arms?
When the seat is at a comfortable distance for his legs, the steering wheel is still too far away.
Hi, thanks for the response and greeting. I guess my problem is that where I am comfortable with my seat position, which is all the way back and slightly reclined, but while in this position the steering wheel is just a bit further away from my reach than I would like. I have adjusted the wheel to go as far forward and down as it will allow. I’m not sure there is anything more that I can do but I just wanted to see if anyone was experiencing the same issue.

I 100% agree with Riobak. I am 6' with long legs. Seat all the way up/back and I wish steering telescoped out further. Actually, if they didn't do away with adjustable pedals it would be great.
When you say "forward" about the steering wheel, that to me means forward=as in away from you toward the front front of vehicle, closer to dash.
Ok, now I understand. To me that would be adjusted back toward the driver. Shorter arms then.

Yes, I wish the steering wheel would come more towards me than it does. It's a further reach than I prefer.

If I had the seat all the way back I would not be able to reach the pedals. Never had any issues with the wheel.
