I am 6 foot tall, stocky lad and I find it allot easier to drive barefoot. With boots on its a bit too cramped. I currently have Gemini bucket seats in which probley doesnt help.

When the ute had the stock seats in it I drove from Sydeny to Brisbane - NEVER AGAIN. As soon as I got to Brizzy I whacked in the Gemini seats (cause they were free) and finished the trip up to Townsville. Still not the most comefortable drive but my ass and back thanked me for the new seats

If the big Datto Doctor (remember him?) can drive a 1000 ute, any of you should fit into a 1200 ute, right?

im 6"4 and my seats are a little bigger than your average seats in a ute and i still fit fine. all you need to do is have a bit of a bent neck to fit in.
