That's a problem carried over from the olde VUE, then. My mom has a 2005 VUE 4-cyl and I feel like a Tyrannosaurus Rex when I drive it. The seat moves way back, and I like that (I'm 6'2") but then the steering wheel is too far away. I wish it had telescopic steering, I thought the new VUE did. Thigh support is non-existant in the older one as well. Maybe they shoulda had Schukra make the seats.

I've been driving Aura XR's for my last three demo models at work. I decided to change up and brought home a VUE XE FWD with damn near everything in it except NAV and I'll probably be driving it for the next 2 months or so (review will follow).
I've spent plenty of time in the VUE, but I have never had extended time with it. I'm looking forward to breaking it in and getting a real daily experience out of it.
I love it so far, it handled fantastic on the way home from work tonight. But I'll tell you right now, that driver seat sucks. I can't get comfortable in it at all. I had a customer from Johnson Controls (seat supplier) and even she said they knew the seats sucked at JC.
I've never gotten a complaint about them before, but talk about a lack of thigh support! Not only that, I feel like the lumbar is constantly there even with it in the relaxed position. I also feel like I am extending my arms too much to reach the wheel.
I'll see how it goes over the next few days.
BTW, I don't have this problem with the redline seats.
