Orlando Dealer Event - Tall Guy Fit

[LaterGator]

Went to the dealer event tonight at Greenway Ford in Orlando. As one of the members of the Bronco6G football team (6'6", 265lbs, 55" around the shoulders, 35" inseam), I needed to verify fit prior to ordering. Current vehicle is a 2015 F150 Lariat SuperCrew, which has the most room of any vehicle I've ever had. I tried to capture some of the things that are typical fit issues for me in the photos below, but I'm no photographer. The Bronco is more narrow, and the B-pillar is right there at my shoulder, but I didn't find it obtrusive or uncomfortable. There was room in the footwell for using the clutch without shins banging on the lower dash or size 13 boots getting caught up. Legs had room between the wheel and door/dash/center console. In the second picture I was forcing my leg against the console to see if it would interfere with the GOAT knob or hit the controls (nope and nope). Third picture is trying to estimate headroom. I was messing around with the seat adjustments, so this may have been with a lower seat height, but headroom with the soft top was more than ample. Hardtop allegedly lowers headroom by 1", so headroom is not an issue at all. Last picture... Let's just say I won't be sleeping in the back any time soon....

Thank you for sharing. I’m 6 4 so to see you fit in there makes me feel better.

I've had to do that a surprising number of times in my life! Getting all tangled up getting in or out of the vehicle is a huge pain in the ass.

I'm 6'6" and 220 lbs, I went to the Kansas City showing with the same concerns, like you I only had a slight shoulder rub at the post. I was pleasantly surprise at the room.

I'm pretty jealous you got to see the Badlands. The Florida Broncos are an OBX and a Big Bend. I wanted to see the 33s or 35s and the vinyl interior.

Love the tall guy posts

i’m 5’9 and athletically built so I’ve never had to think twice.

On both the power seats and the manual adjustment seats there is a way to lower the seat it will give you tons of head room.

6'3 235 here. It's definitely smaller than my old F150, but I didn't feel cramped in anyway.
