Need more legroom - modify seat or pedals?

[blackb13]

Alright guys with long legs, any insight yet? There's no way you can be comfortable with a 36" inseam... I'm tempted to modify the brake pedal (cut/weld?) and gas pedal (just cut?) to get them further away from me. I think that might net 2-3" of leg room. Unless anyone has thought of a way to modify the seat?

I'm 66 y.o. and 6' 4". Before I ordered my '23 XL Hybrid I test drove a Maverick to make sure I had enough head room and there was. I don't remember if it was an XLT or a Lariat. And I don't remember being concerned about not having enough leg room. Now after reading this thread I'm worried that I won't have enough leg room my XL. That will suck if it doesn't. My truck is scheduled for 3/31/23.

I suffer from an SI joint injury, and am 6'6". I leave my auto hold on all the time incase my SI joint cramps up while on the brakes.
I have found it to be nice, because once stopped I can take my foot off the brake and it will hold it until I hit the gas pedal.

There is enough even without the power seat.
Before I ordered I'm December 21, I sat in an XL, I am 6'6" 347lbs, and I had plenty of room.

You originally from Indy?

True - I probably used 10-way because I read it in the post right before mine, and wasn't really thinking...

Oddly enough, I only noticed yesterday that the passenger seat also raises / lowers with the forward lever beside the seat.

Besides … I have a 2023 lariat… the “up and down”. Does not rise and lower vertically… it corkscrews diagonally so as I go up it also goes back… it pull be nice to just sit more upright like in a chair… or I could just do more core strength building exercises and reduce the size of my belly
