ATTN '95 Max's: Weird/Ackward steering wheel position/seating !

This has been bugging me for the longest time. The position of the steering wheel and the fact that you can only adjust it very minorly erks me. I find myself alot more comfortable in my dads eddy buere explorer becuase it adjusts alot more.

'95 Guys, do any of you feel ackward in your max ??

Thanks for the valueble input clee.

Let me clear this up.

Do any of you find yourselfs holding the steering wheel with one hand at the bottom becuase it is slanted and put at an angle where it would be annoying to hold it up top ?

Not really.

Most of the time, I hold it up top or on the side. I rarely hold it at the bottom. That feels awkward.

I'm a short guy and I know what you are talking about. It's like the wheel is mounted on the column with the top tilted too far away.

It makes grabbing the bottom more comfortable than the top.

I don't have a problem with it. I always hold the wheel at 3 o' clock and 9 o' clock.

Exactly ! That is exactly what I was trying to say. I'm glad im not alone.

I am not tall either, maybe an inch or 2 taller than you clee . Well I ride pimp so yes it's probubly the fact that your seat is perfectly neat and straight that you don't have this problem.
