Hi, I have a 2008 Honda Fit. I love the car, but for my legs not to be too cramped, I have to keep chair pretty far back. But that causes my arms to be completely extended when I’m trying to reach the steering wheel. What’s the best way to adjust this Fit’s fit? Can I extend the steering wheel? Is there any other way to make this more comfortable?

Unless it has a telescoping steering wheel, no. Sounds like you don’t fit in the Fit.

No, you can’t extend the steering column. It seems this car is not a good “fit” for you.

Trade it in and look for a slightly used car you can take for an extended test drive.

Not sure of your size, however why tall people try to jam themselves into tiny cars is beyond me.
