My first CMP was a 12cab Ford. At 6'3" and a large frame, it was difficult but not impossible.
I could never drive with size 12 boots on. I was relegated to running shoes or even bare feet in the summer. I also found that I needed to rid myself of the original, somewhat soft seat, instead opting for nothing more than about an inch of padding with a cover on it. Anything thicker and I could not get my knee high enough to clutch without hitting the steering wheel.
