Default Pedals to high?

This is starting to get annoying. Every other vehicle I drive. the pedals (clutch and brake) set in the middle of my feet, and i can stop and clutch fine. But this truck the set on the tip of my toes and I have to raise my feet up every time. Is there ANY way to lower the pedals??

To the tune of Roy D Mercer "Just how big a boy are ya?"
Seriously... you can't heel/tow the pedals? I'd like to see a pic of you sitting in the driver's seat, driver door open, showing how you drive... and go from there, because I'm sure nothing short of a custom fabrication will "lower the pedals"

i can fit my foot on the pedals fine if the seat is all the way back
but then i fell like im too far away from the dash
the space between the pedal and floor on most cars allows the pedal to be right in the middle of my foot but the floor is lower on my truck and it rests on my toes

riding dirty?

The only thing I can think of that would be short of custom fabrication is pulling up your carpet and placing something under that... you really didn't move the pedals just moved the location of your heal closer.

You could body drop that sucker, that'll put the pedals closer to the floor.
