Head Room

It's the noggin

Big head problems!

Good lord brother, you're gonna need a bigger truck

Haha I hope not. I am actually considering going up to my local RAM dealership so I can sit in a 25 truck without a moonroof and maybe a 2500 to see if there's a difference.

I wonder if the head room is higher or lower between having a moonroof vs not?

I have 1800 miles on my truck so far. I have about 1 inch, or less when I sit slouched in the driver-side seat with the seat tilted back. I do have the moonroof option, which I now regret as when I hop in and sit straight up, my head touches the roof. Does anyone else have this issue? I came from a 2011 F150 that I had for 7 years and never had my head touch the roof. Also, I have a friend with a moonroof in his 22 F150 that I drove, and I didn't have this issue. The seat tilted back enough without being a low rider, and the seat is as low as it will go.

Just trying to see if anyone else has experienced this, as it's becoming a daily annoyance to be honest. I'm 6'3

6'5. Plenty of headroom without touching it, with sunroof. Front part of seat might be tilted up?

It's up a little, but I've tried with it completely flat and doesn't seem to make a difference in terms of hight. Not entirely sure then with you being taller. I'll have to make a video.

Dirty truck at the moment.
I ensure the seat is pressed all the way down, front and back. I show the seat which doesn't look crazy forward or anything to me. Hop in and my head touches the roof. I do have to adjust and slouch a bit but I definitely can't say plenty of room.

6'4", moonroof and I have plenty of clearance (at least 3 inches). So odd.

See the video I liked to? Yeah I don't understand either. After the guy saying he is 6'5" and has tons of room. Don't think my seating position is super upright and I show it's as low as can go.

That sucks. It would drive me mad.

I'm getting there but thought I'd ask if anyone else is close to hitting too.

Have you tried the passenger side all the way down to see if there is a difference? Possible you stuffed a first aid kit or something like that under the seat that is making it so it does not bottom out? My son is 6’2” and has a ton of headroom

Nothing is under the seat as far as I'm aware. But I'll try the passenger seat next time I head out to it. Thanks for the advice.

Really weird. I almost wonder if you should go try to sit in another RHO. Certainly not impossible that those highly skilled and engaged factory techs screwed something up with your seat.

 

[ICEXIX]

I know ha, closest I could get would probably be a Rebel. No RHOs in my area ordered mine from Mark Dodge and had it delivered. But after the storm is done around my area I do plan on going to sit in a 25 Rebel as it should be pretty close anyway and see if it's different.

Where are you? Seems like someone on here would be close-ish

MN, Minneapolis area. Wouldn't be opposed to a meetup, but I'll try a dealer first.

Hmm. I like the amount you show proving seat is down. Makes no sense. Move seat fwd and recline it more? Im at a lose. I have plenty of room

This is crazy. Something isn't right, clearly some big dudes having no issues and clearly you're a big dude that looks like you're crammed into a mini cooper, lol. Man my conspiracy theories are going crazy in my head right now. I, too, am curious to see the result in another RHO or Rebel, with a moon roof, a like for like comparison, wondering if your seat isn't going all the way down due to a fault or whatever? Did you sit in the passenger seat yet? Or...you're really a 7 foot badass NBA player and just mind fucking us all lmao. Man I sure hope you get this figured out...what if you're the only one driving a chopped RHO, that would be kinda badass too, I might trade ya and slam that beeotch on airbags

 

[ramdaddy]

Maybe OP and another RHO owner tape measure from the seam on the front edge of the seat to the floor and post that distance.
