Thanks all, for the kind feedback.

I probably went overboard with the seating position, but I have short legs and tend to steer at the 5- and 7-o'clock positions during cruise (average recline, seat moved forward more than most, and the tilt/telescoping wheel is placed where I can rest my elbows). The elevation and pitch of the seat moves together, so finding that balance was tough.

BTW, if anyone has any suggestions for Used Vehicle Features, I'm all ears...
