The door edge SUCKS and kills my arm. I can't break myself of trying to use it either! It would be one thing if these were manual transmission, but not only was there no consideration for it, it's almost as if they made it painful on purpose.
I'm going to really reach here.. maybe the outward sloping angle helps deflect rain while at Starbucks? Seriously though, why mak it a crowned edge?
Has anyone found a solution?

It's actually pretty nice for me. I never put my arm there if the window's up, and it's the right angle for me if the window's open, better than a flat (horizontal) surface.

I’ve had the same issue with the GX. PrimoWorkz has the solution! I had to slightly bend the plate to get it to fit perfectly.

I suppose this is purely influenced by height, arm length, and chair position.. I'm only 5'9", but I have a longer torso and 5'11" wingspan. I adjust my seat in a position that allows my wife to not need to readjust the rearview mirror when she drives.
 
I agree that the crowned, hard plastic door sill is awful.

I tried the Primo workz thing on a past truck and I had to return it - it was just too big & bulky and ugly for me.
