It's very odd to go on a non-family members blog and STILL hear about my uncle being freakishly large. Makes me shudder LOL But, you are awfully close to family LOL <BR/><BR/>How about you get the Volvo and give ME the T & C?! I've been trying to snag Terri's for a while ...

It als...I agree that it is a nice looking vehicle. It also has nice features for the kids boosters and car seats but it is too small. Not in a square footage sense, but in a “I feel cramped in the cockpit” sense. The rearview mirror is right at my eye level causing a major line of sight problem. The steering wheel is way to low even on the highest setting. I feel like I am driving with my knees. Not good. Also the consul in the middle is so wide that my legs are cramped. The seat does not go far enough back or down to fix any of this stuff. This was one of the main reasons we bought the Chrysler Town and Country instead of the other vans on the market (that and the stow and go seating). <BR/><BR/>The thing I don’t understand is why these large cars make the cockpit so cramped. It is not just Volvo. Many of the cars Jerry gets are like this. It is pretty annoying. It makes no sense to me. I am not unusually large. I’m 6’3 and 215-20 lbs. That’s not small but it’s not oddly large either. I don’t get it. In an era where cars are bigger and people are bigger the actual drivers cockpits are getting smaller.

I'm sooo jealous!!! :-p A good friend of mine works for Volvo out in California. She use to be one of the girls who walked around cars and showed them off (what are they called?) at the big car shows. She travelled one year to 10 countries. I wish I had her job and got her discount! :( (Does your dad get a discount?!?!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789723615474728001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33304501.post-43225872166742797542007-03-22T11:02:00.000-05:002007-03-22T11:02:00.000-05:00That is a beautiful vehicle.
