    After wading through literally hundreds of posts I found very little in the way of actual solutions that people actually performed with success. This is my attempt to consolidate some of those for the next guy and also to try and see if anyone else has anything to add.

    SOLUTIONS AND FIXES ONLY PLEASE!!!!

    Thank you!

    3. Lower steering wheel angle until there's just one thumb's thickness between the wheel and my legs.
    4. Adjust recline until comfortable. I tend to lay it back (think F-16 fighter).
    5. Adjust seat fore-aft until, with my arms straight, my wrists rest directly on top of the steering wheel rim.
