At 6'3", I'm not quite as tall as you are. However, I fit neatly into my assorted early XJs without any trouble (save in my 1988 - the sunroof assembly is coming loose, but I'm going to remove it and patch the hole anyhow.)

You want funny? I used to work with someone who was 6'8", and he drove a Neon to work every day! Ever see those scenes in Alien when the monster would unfold out of some impossibly small space? That's what it looked like (and the guy that played the Alien was, himself, 6'8" or so. Go figure...)

im 6'5 and had a 2004 grand cherokee and just traded it for a 2010 wrangler. The 2007 -2010 seem to have a bit more room inside. I got the auto trans insted of the manual. I had a 1994 and had my brother move the rails on the seeat and that had the manual. Good luck
