I am looking for comments on whether anyone else has experienced an annoyance like I have driving an 07 Ventana. I'm 6' 2" and find that the cruise control lever on the left side of the steering column hits my leg when driving. It turns out it is located too far back which puts it right under the steering wheel where it can't be seen. I've thought that a way to fix it would be to bend the tube forward and then back to the left. It might also be necessary to leave it angled to the left. However, I'm not sure the arm is long enough to do this. I'm going to check with Newmar to see what they think, but would like to hear from anyone who has had the same experience.

Thanks,

Don
