Unless you are in some way handicapped, you do not need a QR to get in and out of the car (I'm 6'4" 190 and I have no trouble getting in or out, even with the top up). The QR is a real benefit though to working under the dash. Plus, it's pretty good security to just remove your wheel. It's also nice to be able to adjust the configuration of the wheel so you see exactly what you want on the dash (or to make it straight up and down, which blocks everything). That's why I got my QR. Oh and the one time I was driving somebody who was already a little nervous, and at a stoplight, while we were not moving, I pulled the wheel off, held it up and yelled
"OH NOOO!" Yes, the passenger, forgetting that we were not moving, screamed as well.
