Anyone have a problem with keeping their foot on the gas pedal?

I don’t think I have ever been on a trip in my dad’s Ram that his foot didn’t slide off the gas pedal lol. It’s only ever happened to me once in my Ram.

My foot slips off when I go to pass someone and I just sit there. Actually if I wear the wrong shoes it slips off all the time. My wife just hates it. Lol

Is it a Flintstone truck? Shoes are expensive these days. Lol

Only time there is gas in my truck is when I go-to the gas station with the 5 gallon container to fill lawn mower.
It's a diesel and mine has an accelerator pedal :-D

I have had that issue, but is when seat is too far forward, since you have to tilt foot to push. To fix that, Move seat back and adjust wheel, never had issue unless wife doesn't put seat back in right position.

Never would have thought of that but it works great and thanks for the great information. Love my gas pedal now. Lol

I found the weathertech mats have their edge right beside the pedal and it sticks out a bit, especially when they were new and stiffer. With work boots on I'd sometimes try to press the mat instead of the pedal.

When I was doing the Auto Auction's I had many Weather tech Mats with folded edges that could interfere with the pedals ! That is 1 reason why I will not do those mats ! But that is me !

I can see them being an issue if installed improperly of if they were warped from storage somehow, they come up beside the pedal in my Charger also. But as long as they're in right they haven't been an issue safety wise. rather have them there to catch the muck from winter
