My size

[Dmcpher326]

I Dont have one yet but I got my eye on a 1999 that already has 4.5 inch lift.
I am 6'3" 285lbs....will I have any trouble getting in this this?

I hate to be that guy; but, can you go look at the vehicle in person? There are a lot of body proportion variables at play with just height and weight.

It's doable but I can't say it's comfortable. My grandson (6'2" @ 235) drives one of my 2000's and it's not easy getting in/out!

I'm 5'10" and I'll still crack my head on the door opening if I'm distracted.

I have a friend who is probably about 6'-6" and 300lbs (CoachBruce--he came on one of the Adopt-a-Trail runs 7 or 8 years ago). He owns, drives and likes his 2001 XJ.

He certainly fills the driver's seat, but it works for him.

SidewaysStarion is a pretty big guy too. His '98 (IIRC) seems to work for him.

That said, different folks have different standards for what they will call comfortable. Your threshold may vary. Only way you can really answer your question is to try it out yourself.
