Anyone Else Smash Their Shin on Gen 3 Driver’s Side Instrument Console?

That was a daily occurance until I installed some side steps. Haven't whacked my shin since.

 

Mine's too scared now that there's a camper shell on the back. It's "too hard to see through the mirror"

Well, #1, it's not and #2, the truck has a backup camera. But whatever.

 

This.

 

I have a manual, Problem SOLVED

 

You could always do the short people mod.
Wooden blocks on the pedals, then there's no need to move the seat.

 

Getting out I seem to always side my foot across the door sill since, the seat is so close to the floor.

 

Or is it a brain flaw since you know the cause yet still allow it to happen?

 

I'm not convinced it's a design flaw as much as it is a user error.

If it hurts, stop doing it.

Actually the toilet seat analogy is perfect.

 

Only after shorter people don't move the seat back after they drive it (rarely!!)

 

toilet seat goes down? then Taco seat goes back. fair is fair.

 

Yeah, I do it a lot too. Why the panel is squared off like that is beyond me. Certainly would not be kind to the left leg in a serious accident.

 

It'll feel better after it quits hurting...

 

I do it! I wish they made the seats set a little lower actually
