Personal preference: see turn signals below the steering wheel.

2nd to the lowest spot is perfect for me.

Just high enough to keep it off my thighs.

Lowest for me.. I have the seat all the way back and all the way down cause of my height, and having the steering wheel anything but at the lowest setting feels awkward. Granted, I cant see most of the info center cause of the top of the wheel, but oh well.

Lowest, because it feels more like a 'sports car'.

Went on my Sunday drive today and I tried the lowest position for a few miles. I just couldn't get used to it. Problem is that I like to place my left elbow on the top part of door panel and hand on the wheel.

I wouldn't have thought that the lowest setting would excel in your poll
