Default Tight Squeeze

So I found a new green with tan Stingray, still available BTW, this morning at my local dealer. The rep was nice enough to open it up and let me sit in it. I'm 6' 4" and 250lbs, and the fit was very, very tight. Very disappointing to say the least.

I think I will be sticking with my Grand Sport.

If anyone is looking for a 7 spd, Z51 loaded, MSRP of $72K, in the southeast WI area, PM me for details.

There is a trick to getting more "down" and "recline" from the seat. If you don't know about it and want to go back and try again I/we can find and post it for you.
