Sitting low = the only way to go
Tall shifters = look cool, I've driven with one & the seat on the floor...you just end up holding the middle of the stick somewhere & only reaching up for a button when needed.
Sit low with a long shifter?

Tb0n3, lostNfound and Flying Dutchman Thank this.

Rofl! More natural that way.
It's just style, like some people like conventional tractors others like cab overs, some like long wheel base trucks some like them short. Everyone like a different thing. Some people like stand up sleepers some like the flat tops. It's all preference. Sometimes functionality if you run heavy loads it better to have a flat top with a short sleeper instead of a stand up full loaded sleeper.
Whatever floats your boat. No reason to be hatein on each other, were not all uniform robots that would be a boring world. -

you can see a truck with the ape shifter at the big truck stop on 80 in walcott iowa.they have several trucks on display inside.
now way can you reach the top of those things.wouldn't want one but they look cool.
i think you can buy them there,they have EVERYTHING you could possibly want for a truck there ya can even get yurself some cheap sunglasses -
It's a Ca. thing. Like the sun visors that cover 2/3 of the windshield. or 450 chicken lights on the trailer, 1/4 fenders on the trailer axles. Covers on the fuels tanks.

Don't think it's just a Cali thing. Go to a truck show. Rarely see a Cali truck at a truck show.
Let them do their thing with their pants, you shouldn't have a problem catching one if you every are in a sticky situation with someone like that.
If everyone wore pants like you did what would you have to comment about next their shirts to low or their sleeves are cut off.
Everyones their own person, not always right not always wrong Mr. Adolph Hitler!Badmon Thanks this. -
