Yes and no. As you can see in my pics, I can put the seat all the way up with no problems viewing the gauges. Cars are built around the average size of people. Some people fall outside the upper and lower ranges of these averages. Unfortunately, they are the ones that have to adapt.
Yes, you are correct. They now have 3D animated models that can be inserted into 3D designs that cover the range of humans size from 5% to 95%. It is not an easy task to make everything fit every body (human) style. People would be amazed at what a difference there is between a 95% male compared to a 5% female.

Ford Bronco Sport Cluster F*** (flaw) 1652320459193


Really dislike lowering myself into driver seat
Set seat for max height
Problem reading guages
Instrument cluster: green arrow frames in the coolant temp and fuel gauges
Major Kong height 18.5 hands (6'2")
Cluster F*** (insert flaw or other(s)as you please)
line of sight for one reason or another drops the top line (green arrow) downwards
Line now interferes with gauge readings (red line)
Suggestion to Ford
Plenty of room to lower the gauges E&D to remove upper line from obstructing view.
Hard to say what's the problem ...??? You must be extremally tall (or short??) (Kong...?) ... unclear ... and, btw, my instrument panel does NOT look like this at all!! 2021 Outer Banks ... different design.
Anyways ... for sure not the manufacturer's fault...works for pretty much everybody else without a problem.

The issue is limited to the 2 gauges in the cluster (see post #1)
Coolant Temp & Fuel
Now I wish to remind everyone to focus on what was said
Coolant Temp & Fuel
Apparently the Base trim only (?)
Intent: point out the gauge of interests behavior
The odd horizon lowering effect at sharper angles
RPM and MPH unaffected
Thread corrupted and degraded into a chaotic free-for-all
Ended up being a growth hormone discussion panel:D
