    Does your right shin rub the center console?

    Yeah, I know; I'm freakishly tall. No need to rub it in. But I can't believe this doesn't bother anyone else. I wear shorts quite often and I find the area just under my knee (the top of my shin) getting really irritated by the rubbing on the vertical plastic that makes up the left side of the center console.

    A while back, I 3M'd some felt header material on that area. But, that isn't holding any more and it isn't the most comfortable anyway.



    Anyone else have this problem? Any solutions/ideas?

    Sorry, CV I'm only 5'10" so it's not an issue for me. Maybe some of the other 7 foot members can suggest something for you!

    Even if your average height it's nice to be able to move your feet around (while in cruise0 on a long trip. Thats why I've never been real "Hot" for consoles. The floor shift is OK but it sure would be nice to have the extra foot room. Too bad Dodge didn't make it (the console ) an option.

    Tell me about it CV. On the long trips the right leg falls asleep resetting on the console. A nice paddel cover like the Elite 22 arm rest would be great. Myabe something that looks good too.
