I am 5' 8" and feel like my knee's are on the dashboard when i am positioned so that i can access the gas pedal on WOT, does anyone else have this issue?.

I love the redeye but feel it was designed for someone 6' or taller.

Are there any pedal options to help us 'shorter' individuals?

Im 5’9 and my RE fits me great. Do you have the power steering column? Back the steering wheel out towards you. Makes a huge difference.
EDIT: I read your post again. Your legs are too far away I guess. Steering adjustment prob wont help that but im basically the same height and tend to have the wheel pulled out further than most people for a shorter reach. My legs have never been an issue. I think you can def make it work, try messing with the column just for kicks.
So im no help to you lol.

I'm 6'5", quite comfortable and obviously of no help either

5’10“. Redeye perfect. Prefer straight-arm style away from wheel for cruising.

T Rex arms?

6'2" here, but I drive with the steering wheel fully extended. I like the steering wheel very close, Nascar style, for increased control. I find the car to be very comfortable with great visibility.

I'm 5'9 and had a the same problem for a bit. I fixed it by sliding down the seat a bit more and not sitting as upright as the seats seem to want me too. Really comfortable and now it feels more natural to drive.

Are we talking about a Charger or a challenger? I’m 5’7” on a good day, and feel like the charger Redeye fits me well. I’ve never driven a Challenger.

Def the way you have the seat inclined. Pull the seat forward and recline a bit.

Challenger

I miss the power adjustment for the seat back

That is the way i have it, the seat back is nearly vertical so i don't get thrown in the back seat on WOT .... i'm only 145lbs

I'm also 5'9. I feel comfortable in both the Hellcat Challenger and the Scat pack Charger. Both are very comfy, which is reason #11 I bought both!

 

[Dennis H]

Yup. HC Challenger and Scatpack Charger here. No sunroofs. Room galore. Sweet.

An old school saying I've heard before applies here:
"Adjust the seat front to back for function first. Make other adjustments to try and make it livable."

Short inseam?

 

[Mattm400]

I'm 6'2, 240, pretty comfortable myself. My only thing is, when I wear a helmet, it touches the roof.

 

[hc797]

Short inseam?

30" average for 5'8"

Do that. Once the pedals are perfect, then do the seat, then wheel. I found a less inclined and high seat position very comfortable and maximizes visibility.

And the shift in your position at WOT, you will get used to that!

Edit: Clarification: Move the seat fwd-back and height so the pedals are perfect, then do the seat incline, then wheel.
