Default Have any tall drivers found the most comfortable settings for the seat?

I am 6 feet 2 and I am sure there must be many drivers as tall as me or taller. Try as I might, I cannot seem to find a position for the seat which I would describe as very comfortable. Has anyone cracked this one? I would be very grateful for your tips.

Thanks.

If you want to be very comfortable,. "you're going to need a bigger boat", as the gentleman said in "Jaws". I'm 6'2" also and drive with the seat all the way back and lowered enough to provide about 2 inches of space above the top of my head. That's a tolerable position, but I'm looking for a place to rest after 600 miles on the Interstate.

The trouble is, I like the boat. I can’t see myself jumping ship. Is the Sun over the yard arm, yet? Cheers!

To get more headroom you can swap seats with base model manual cloth seats. I have two Limiteds with nice leather seats, and a Special Edition with the base cloth seats. In the SE the seats sit a little lower, and in my opion are more comfortable.
