I want to add to this as well, it's my one big complaint, I didn't notice it when I was test driving it, I got a '22 back in '22 and I just can't find a comfortable position, the door arm rest are SOOOOO Low and far off, if I drive with hands on bottom of the wheel then I can elbow on center counsel and armrest, but then the armrests are so small.....it's really annoying, even with the telescope wheel it's still too high...I am pretty damn close to the wheel with my seating....it's too bad, Im gonna try that amazon thing but that's annoying looks goofy...

today i was just so pissed that i couldn't find a good seating position that i was online looking to see if I was the only one...apparently not....im 5'10"
I'm 5'10" also. Seat back and down fully and the arm rest is fine in my 22 Lariat for me. Cover is a little sticky when hot and sweaty but comfortable.

There are pads made for the console that cover it completely. You should be able to find these things on AliExpress, Temu, Wish, etc. Maybe even Ebay or Etsie.
