    Yeah, whatever you do don't sit in the back and look at the steering wheel compared to the seat.

    Like this, for instance.

    You'll have to paint a set of racing stripes down the truck and throw a "gas grass or ass" sticker on the back, too.

    The question is, do I paint the racing stripe in the middle or just slightly off center?

    By the time I was old enough to drink illegally they were long-gone. That was the era where first shifting to the 'wide mouth' cans.

    Well Melba Toast was from an era where they still had a centered steering wheel, so the stripes were symmetrical. :notsure:

    The 2019 is already out, one of the truck reviewers got in and it was the first thing he noticed. Right away, 'oh, you finally centered the steering wheel with the seat'
    No, no, no, it's redneck ergonomics! It's so you can sit centered on the seat, right hand on the wheel and have your left arm out the window.

    Shouldn't the wheel be closer to the window, then?

    Umm... no? It's so your right hand can be on the wheel, so the wheel is offset to your right so your arm is just straight out. This leaves your left arm free to wave out the window and do all sorts of stupid shit. The steering wheel is centered in front of your right shoulder for comfortable one handed driving. When was the last time you saw a redneck with his hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel?
