Op, go for a test drive dude. Seat does go back really far but will you actually be comfortable in the seat. You have a huge frame and any seat that has large side bolsters will prolly be uncomfortable. I felt the boss recaro seats were too skinny for my back. My first impression was uncomfortable.

I have tall friends that fit just fine.
My BIGGEST problem though, is the front seats when someone sits in the back. The lever to release the seat forward is pretty crappy and it doesn't slide the seat forward, just the incline. It makes it rough for people trying to get in and out.

I'm 6'7" here and fit comfortably (barely, seat all the way back) 
The new Mustangs are one of the few cars I fit into like this. And best of all, except for the fact that the steering wheel doesn't telescope, it feels like it's meant for people my size. Even though the back of my driver seat is all the way against the front of the rear seats :P
I was on the fence when looking at the 2011 Mustang because I was worried it would feel okay for a little while then would start to hurt (especially in my knees), but then I bought the car and drove it home 6+ hours and felt fine when I arrived. I've been very lucky to fit in this car.
I heard rumors that for the next version of the Mustang they may make it a bit smaller... hopefully not

Ohhh Ford....PLEASE NO!! Take out the back seats then! For me and my buddies, the back seat is a joke.

everyone is talking about the steering wheel not telescoping... are you refering to being able to move it in and out or up and down? bc mine adjust up and down? and im 6'3 and fit fine.. have alot of room to play with
