[QUOTE="hubrat, post: 926750, member: 869"] Watch out with those old P7s that have the plastic shield on the bottom front of the driver's seat. If you slide it all the way up, as I have to, your foot can actually get caught under the clutch. At 5'2 as a cover driver I pretty much did what I had to, within reason, to get the job done. This often included taping a couple map books + a pillow to the seat back. Management never said a word. I did this for 2 years. I have had to refuse to drive because the distance and necessary alterations were just too unsafe. In that case I either reloaded something I could drive, rode jump with a soup driving, or went home. As a bid driver I've been lucky to have p-1000s with short-back seats that move up far enough. If I win a bid with anything else they will re-weld the seat as they have done in the past for tall drivers, moving them back. As for reaching shelves, I've always enjoyed a good climb. Best of luck. Make the safest choices. [/QUOTE]
