Possible to make the steering wheel come out even further?

Default Possible to make the steering wheel come out even further?

One of my chief complaints is that the steering wheel doesnt come out further. Would it be possible for someone with a little mechanic chops to make the steering wheel telescope further than stock? I kind of doubt it, but oh man that would be sweet for my body size.

Oh. I use to sit like that, but ever since I started driving a manual car I always sit in a proper driving position. Chances are you will not want to pay the price to make it extend. I do not know of anything to extend it further.
