Welcome! To answer your question for some big guys yes and for some big guys no. There are some threads around here somewhere on this type of topic.

im 5 10 and about 250lbs My head hits the roof if the seat is not all the way down to the floor. I do have a sunroof and as long as i stay on the left side of the seat its ok.. lol so to answer your question I think you would be cramped but trully you should sit in one and decide for yourself

Yeah, sit in one and try it, but check one without the sunroof...... much more headroom.

i am 6'2, 220, i fit in the car just fine....

visibility for the vertically gifted is not great, but the only way to see if you like it is to drive it.

One of the members "Saxrocks2009" is 6' 7 tall, he would be the one to ask about how much room he has in his. I know he drives with his seat all the way back . As for my self, I'm 5' 11 and really the only time I have issues is at stop lights. Hope this helps.

I am 6'4" on the heavier side. The main thing is I have long legs and IMO to takes a certain position to have me knee where it will not drive me nuts.

This is my wife's vehichle and I drive when were are going anywhere. I can deal but had this been a DD or even a Manual car I would be pulling my hair out. It does have a Sunroof and if I am too close to the light I have to duck down OR open the sun roof or even stop before the light a good distance.

IMO I would have you test drive one.

Hope you weren't wanting a sunroof...as that really lowers the headliner... But yeah, some people can do it, some can't. Might be best if you can find one and try sitting in it.

I don't think Jason has a Sunroof either. Another quite tall member (JX3, I think he is 6' 5") has a sunroof and he does just fine.
