My dad is 6'4 and the only problem he had when he drove my H3 is the petals being to close together.

No but VW bugs come with a flower vase.

I can't imagine that an H3 is the best vehicle for a super tall person. The combination of the floor being 2 feet off the ground and the cool chop-top styling makes for a rather short cabin (by SUV standards). But the front legroom (length wise) is very good which helps the tall people.

I'm only 5'9" so the H3 fits easily.

Im 6-5 and have no problems ,,, BUT I have size 18 feet and thats a problem. The brake pedal is to close to the footfeed, My dealer said they have had some calls on this problem and there might be a fix on the way. OK So I had to take the rubber cover off the brake pad and hacksaw a 1/4 inch off the right side of the brake pad to get my big old foot to not hit the brake pedal, Dosnt look pretty but I have room now. The rubber pad will never fit back on again but I really dont care. Funny what a guy with big feet will do to cope... :-)

["what fix have you heard from your dealer regarding the brake pedal and accelerator pedal being to close".)

The issue with getting out (no matter how tall you are) is that the steering wheel does not tilt "up" as far as most vehicles in the market.

They said they had a few complaints about the brake pedal to close.. The last time I talked to them they hadnt heard anything about the fix. I kinda think they were just saying that to please me. If I hear anymore about a fix Ill post...

I'm 6'3" and once i heard the H3 was coming out that was my big question- HEADROOM???, and i wanted a sunroof no question.

There is enough headroom for me in the H3 with factory sunroof, and i sat in an H3 with an after market sunroof and there was even more room, but i wanted the bigger factory sunroof because it was 2ft by 3ft, the after market one was smaller and so the inside roof actually went up toward the sunroof giving more head room , compared to the flat ceiling of the factory sunroof.

oh and i sat in an H3 with lux option with factory sunroof and there is less headroom because the electric seats sits higher than the seats that arent electric.

and as someone said earlier, my only problem is that the pedals are too close, but im used to it now.

you know what they say about guys with big feet?

need more headroom.

I am 6'7" and was surprised to find out that I do fit in the H3 rather comfortably! The only problems I found were:

1. The door armrest and center console armrest were too low, and placing my elbow up near the window just felt awkward.
2. The rearview mirror always appeared to be "in the way" although this could be my imagination.
3. Looking out the rearview mirror was another oddity.

Other than that the H3 was very nice from a tall person's point of view. By the way, I MUST fit in a vehicle comfortably, otherwise I will not even consider the purchase.

Bill
