Dislike the position of the brake pedal
I'm a very slim guy - 5'8, 135lbs. First of all, when I drive, I sit in the driver's seat with my legs apart and my left leg is always on the foot rest on the left-handed side. If I wanted to step on the center of the brake pedal, my right leg would end up tilting to the left side a bit, making me to feel very uncomfortable because I feel that my *skinny* thigh is literally squeezing or pushing my b a l l s. Usually, I end up stepping on the right-handed side of the brake pedal and I feel like the car isn't braking well. The braking feels right to me when I actually step on the center of the brake pedal. I already tried to play around with the seat position, and it didn't help. Does anyone notice this? or is it just me?

One thing that might affect "pressure" in that area is the angle of the seat. Does it help if you lower the seat angle (lowered thigh support)? Might give more space for everything haha.

OP has to be very careful if this option is seriously considered. We all know the Toyota issue with stuck pedals. A mod in that area will probably be frowned upon. By the way, was this not noticed during the test drive?
