Grab handle on drivers side A-pillar

[dleepnw]

Here's a suggestion to put a grab handle on the drivers side A-pillar, in addition to the other 3 we see in the vehicle. A vehicle with this much ground clearance needs that to make it easier to enter and exit, especially if there is no running boards.

I just watched the new Scout video “Forging the Future - Interior Philosophy“ and the lack of a driver’s side A pillar grab handle stuck out like a sore thumb for me. I’ve had vehicles with one and vehicles without. I find vehicles much more useful, inviting, and ergonomic with a grab handle on the pillar at all doors. I can’t think of a reason to not add one for the driver. I and others do not like (and some find it physically more difficult) pulling ourselves into the vehicle using the steering wheel. Upvoted.

Please add a driver side A pillar grab handle to the design to match all of the other doors.

Use my truck’s grab handle all the time. Would really be appreciated.

I think we mentioned this awhile ago but glad you mentioned it again because that caught my eye again. For all the things the design team ran their hands over in the vehicle it was definitely missing. I’m guessing a large portion of the enthusiasts are 45 and over (or 50+ in my case) so that grab bar is always welcomed in an suv with this stature

There are certainly short and permanently disabled future owner/s here who have a history of having to throw themselves into SUVs. Grab bar appreciated.

I concur with adding a grab bar would be great. My family uses them every time.

Hell, I’m 6’8” and use the driver side grab handle every day in my truck. It’s a feature I would have assumed all new trucks/suv’s had.
