They must have to get in a different way or something. Do you shorter people have to step on the rocker panel to get in. I just put one leg in and slide onto the seat. Just wondering. My mother never hit her head on the top of her cherokee though.

i don't know the deal is for me getting in the other doors. my dad and brothers all do the same thing and they are only an inch above or below me.

5'8" is actually the average male size in the united states, not the average women size. women averaged out at 5'3" or something close to that. i was bored last year and googled it because my wife's mom is 5'8" and my wife is only 5'3".

my ex-brother in law is 6'6" also and weighs about what you do and he always had single cab ford or chevy trucks. he looked so funny getting in and out of it. not as funny as my friend's dad and his fiero though, same height as ya'll but super thin. he would sit in that sucker with his knees up by his ears.
