Pull down the tilt adjuster. Pull out or push in the steering wheel. It is a very nice comfort feature.

Yeah, but it would also be nice if salespeople gave a damn these days and went over these features.

I can still remember in the late 80s when my dad bought a Nissan sedan (Stanza maybe? I can't remember that part). But the salesman went over EVERYTHING before we drove off the lot. There wasn't a single feature on that car that he didn't show my dad how to use. Fast forward to last week, my dad bought a Mazda and I've been reading his manual to teach him how to set radio presets. It's all 'sign the papers and get out' these days.

my dealer showed me some stuff- spent probably a grand total of 5 minutes with me in my baby when i picked it up demonstrating onstar and the climate control features

I prefer to sign and get out, would rather read the manual on my own than waste my time listening to the sales guy.

This is news to me too, and I've used the tilt function. Now I have to go out and try this.

Compared to the old turn signal style tilt, the new system is light years better but its not spring loaded for easy in and outs. It took me a bit to get it where I like it but now its a set and forget.
