I know that is not the safest position but the alternative may be going back to driving my '96 Ram. The seats sit much higher, do not have narrow bolsters and have thicker padding. The downside is the 17 mpg. The upside is more storage room and less accumulated miles on the Crossfire.
5' 11" 250 lbs and older than dirt.
My solution to that problem was to get a 2" thick gel cushion for an office chair and use that on long trips. I did 700 miles back in June with just 2 stops.
