Make sure you laugh at them when they hit their heads on door jams and such. I'm REAL glad I'm no taller than I am. We don't fit anywhere, some cars I find interesting are just off limits to me and I'm not really tall.

I always wanted a 32' Ford Rodney, found one for sale down here in a consignment shop and asked to sit in it but could not and it was barely chopped! I did fit in a 40' though and always liked them too!

I sympathize. My 36 pickup is awkward for me to drive, my lower legs are longer than the space between the pedals and the underside of the steering wheel so I have to spread my knees out when I work the pedals. Need to change that. People were just smaller back then. 57 Tbirds are terrible for tall people and I really liked the one I had, had to take the seat out and sit on the floor, my back against the folded convertible top.

Many years ago when my daughter was young, we were at a car show and while we were walking around we stopped to look in the cab of some 1930's pickup. We both were amazed at how small it was inside and at 6'2' I remarked that there was no way I was getting in it. My daughter then says "I bet Mikey would fit!" I laughed my ass off hearing that from a kid. Mikey is my lifelong buddy who is 5'6". I told him the story but he didn't get as much out of it as I did. Lol

I learned from both my dad and my otherwise very careful about what he said grandpa (he was a small town school principal) to precede any insult with "that little"- that little bastard, that little cheat, that lazy little fker. etc
Then I found myself working at a business where the very hands on minority partner & general manager was like 5'6", and .... seldom had any beef with him I'd voice, but just over all in what I'd say, I had to train that habit out!
