| Calibus | Hi i i just joined the forum recently and have a Question to ask. All you have been helpfull i am curently searching for a 2001 or 2002 Prowler to purchase. I have been to several dealers in the NYC area and none have a Prowler to sit in. I am 6,2 and 225 my question is Since i have never sat in a Prowler will i be comfortable.
Thanks for all your info. |
| DR PROWLER | I'm 6'2" 180 lbs and fit in the car perfectly.With the roof up it's a little bit of a tight squeeze when you're over 6' but shouldn't have an impact in your buying decision. |
| FL Blue Kat | Calibus -- Welcome to the POA. This topic has come up many, many times. Seems like anytime someone over 6' thinks anout buying a Prowler they pose these questions. The following thread, one of many, discusses these concerns. http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/007249.html I suggest that if you still have questions/concerns after reading this then do a search of the threads for the word "comfortable" and you will find several other threads to read. Go luck in finding the Kat of your dreams and again, WELCOME!
Rick

| catfish | im 6ft.2in.no problem.you will love the car.drs.dont open as wide as normal,there is a easy fix for that. ------------------
 |
| CJ | If you need help locating a Prowler, please contact me. I can help. The head engineer on Prowler, Craig Love, is at least 6'4" and he owns one!!!  |
| CTProwler |   I'm 6'1 and over 300 lbs, i fit so you'll fit. I do have trouble getting in and out with top up, but i do make it.------------------
 |
| Randy Cobb | WELCOME! I'm 6' 4" and 240 and I fit fine with the top down. It's a little tight getting in and out with the top up. I have plenty of leg room. Fitting in the Prowler to me is a qusetion of atitude. The "smiles per mile" makes a minor inconvenience like getting in seem trivial. ------------------

http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum9/HTML/000541.html Alittle labor and $8.00 in material. I've seen Jan's door open wide,,,,,excellent mod if you need that extra opening. |
| c.mangeng | Thanks AC, I wish it had the wider opening incorporated in the original design. I don't need the extra room, but some of my older/bigger friends/family do. Craig |
| ed monahan | Calibus, welcome to the POA. First of all, go on a diet. lol. I am also 6 2 and weigh 225 or 230 and I am old on top of that. No problem whatsoever with the top down. Not a big deal with the top up after the first or second attempt.
The car is a blast. See who is near NYC and ask to come over and sit in their car. They will allow it, most likely. You can do a search on the main page, Prowler Owners Registry and sort by state. |
| catfish | c.mangeng.i put a post in last year about this subject it was titled make your doors open wider.there must be a way to do a search to find it.if you cant, emil me your phone#,where i can call you during the day. ------------------

| c.mangeng | Jan B., Thanks, but AC hooked me up with a thread on the subject. It might be the one your talking about. My wife said she would love to have it done to her Katt, but I had to practice on mine first. She is such a non-selfish person. lol |
| catfish | c,mangeng.if you have any question ,call me. ------------------
