Curious, how do most of you set your seat height?

Curious, how do most of you set your seat height?
Do you normally run with the seat in the upper most position, or in the lower most position, or somewhere in between? Do you try and center the dash between the steering wheel spokes? Of course, individual height will probably make a difference, but I'm just asking.

i'm about 5'10
i have the seat in the lowest position and the steering wheel in the lowest, farthest back position. as far as for and aft, i make it so i can push the clutch pedal all the way to the floor, even though i don't when shifting.

As high as possible...
I keep the seat as high as possible. You can never have too good of a view of the road, plus I have a better sense of where the car is (for parking). Being closer to the ceiling also eliminates some glare from the sun.
I don't see how people can sit low in the car. To me this seems like the 'gangsta wannabe' position. They do this because they feel safer since they aren't as exposed in this position. It is easier for them to make eye contact when protected by the doors. This is the same reason some people drive with sun glasses at night.

Sitting low is sitting like a ricer.

I humbly disagree....
There's a sporty feeling that comes when you sit low in a car. Call it rice if you like, but I'd rather call it a preference.
Oh, BTW, no need for the flame suit.

I am 6'1 or 2...and have mine as high as possible, same with the steering wheel.
I like the feel of sitting high, like when you are in an suv...and as low as some of our cars are, its hard to get that feeling when your seat is as low as it goes.
