telescoping steering wheel

does anybody know if you can get a telescoping attachment to the steering wheel? or maybe get an RL steering column if they have telescoping.. whoever thought up the distance between our steering wheel and gas peddles was a moron

i hope youre kidding :wow:
its when the steering wheel moves forward (towards you when sitting in the seat) and backward (moves "away" from you when sitting in the seat), not just up and down

oh i know what your talking about now. my lexus has "telescoping" why would you need that though? its too expensive to customize that feature into the TL. besides, if your too far from the steering wheel or too close, just simply adjust your seating position.

the problem is when I'm the right distance from the steering wheel I'm to close to the gas peddles and when I'm the right distance from the gas peddles I'm to far from the steering wheel yeah I drove my cousins LS400 and that is one perfect machine

the only solution for that is go to the gym and hang on a bar with nothing underneath your feet...hopefully, over time, you'll stretch your body enough so you can enjoy the best of both worlds...shorty
