Driver Seat Height (Which do you like?)
Hi,

Was riding along and decided to raise my seat up from not seeing the hood to seeing the entire hood. I think I like sitting up higher.

Which option do you all like? Seeing the entire hood or not?

After driving full size trucks for 15 years, I feel strange sitting low. I prefer keeping the 4Runner seat near the highest setting for a more truck like vertical driving position. Fortunately I’m only 5’8”, so I still have plenty of head room.

Sitting up high so you can see over the hood, and also over the haters

If only the owners whining about the "glare" from the hood scoop were reading this thread.......

Up/down, forward/backward and tilt, it's like magic.......

A person whining about other people whining...hmmm...

Or you like sitting high up, so you put your seat where your ass likes it then wrap your scoop in matte vinyl to avoid the glare like I did.

I'm tall. Even if I chose to comprise my seating position in any which way I got horrible glare.

You live in oregon with a black truck. I live in Arizona with a white truck. But hey you know everything right?
