Two small annoyances of the Legend

I love my car but I have have two small issues with it:

1) Location of ignition key. Should have put it on the steering column and had the key slot at a different angle. Where it is set now, I almost twist my arm out every time I turn the key

2) Fuel tank sensor. Is it me or is it overly sensitive. Going up/down a slight hill will make the gauge move at least a quarter tank. And it takes forever for it to recalibrate itself.

Otherwise, my car runs great (except for the wind noise but I'm troubleshooting it now).

1. Upscale, expensive cars locate the ignition on the dashboard.
Honda didn't cater to those lower IQs who can't figure out that a rotated movement carries the same movement.

2. I wonder if Honda fixed that in newer models. The slopes around here never adjust my fuel by a quarter tank.

#2 - a bit sensitive when you think about it, fools you into believing you have 1/4 tank when youre empty. Solution: keep the tank half full
i remember it fooled me real good one time.. i was on a loop to get back on the highway.. before i got on the loops i have a little under half.. i looked after i was on the highway.. i was full .. lols got me good but it still doesnt bother me
