Tiny driver tips?
I'm getting ready for a road trip up to Quebec, and would like my 4' 11", size 0 girlfriend to share the driving. She's never driven the car (she's not at all a car person, and thinks my TT is just some kind of guy thing), but she's game to try. Problem is, we can't seem to get the seat adjusted to a comfortable driving position for her.
We put the seat as high as it will go -- any lower and her forward vision is obscured -- and as far forward as possible, at which point she can reach the pedals but complains that she can't press the accelerator while resting her heel on the floor, making for an awkward, tiring, and unstable driving position.
Any tiny TT drivers out there with helpful hints?
Thanks,
Bob

Like my mom always said, "if you can't be helpful, be a smartass."
Oh wait, my mom never said that. Maybe she said something like...uh..."stop being a smartass and be a little more helpful" and I just took it the wrong way.

No, it means that womens' dress sizes have changed over time to assuage the egos of
American women. What was a size 10 in Marilyn Monroe's heyday is now called a size 6 (more or less). Whiich means that what was then a 6 is now a 2. If you're smaller than that, it's a size 0. Ask any smallish woman. I was pretty astonished the first time I was in a department store with my tinygirl and actually saw "Size 0" on a tag.
