Wanted: Front Seat Track End Cover

magnum44 - Well, it happened, not only getting out of the driver's side on the inside of my right ankle, but also getting into the passenger side on the outside of my left calf. It's dangerous to me, hence my search for a solution. I've had these trucks for years too and have been scratched other times. Only recently did I receive a serious laceration. You can still see some skin on the track in that pic.
Is it just a matter of picking-up your feet and paying attention to where you place and/or move them?
IMO you may need a step or you could just be terribly unlucky and/or very clumsy (unless of course there's some root causal disability).
Short of encasing|padding the ends of the seat mounts, another option could be leather boot/shoe leggings. e.g. ...

No disrespect but this has got to be the DUMBEST complaint I have EVER seen. I have never hurt my feet or ankle or calf on either side of my truck where the seat tracks are. And I have hopped, flopped, and flipped into my truck hundreds of times and my truck has never attacked me... Ok, ok I might be exaggerating about my ninja skills but you get the point.
Word of advice to people that get there asses kicked by their trucks... Don't buy an f150, go buy a mini van.

End-of seat mount cover suggestion ...
Modifying cane/walker tips ...
After the above modification, attach/secure to the ends of the seat mounts with (say) black silicone sealant.

My thought - TOO STUPID TO LIVE. Nature's way of culling the herd.
WAY BACK in the '80s as a leader of a data center IT team, I created a BOHICA (Bend Over Here It Comes Again) award (a cheap, wooden, crudly carved polynesian-like necklace). It was given to the individual that did/made/etc. THE DUMBEST fopa of the week. The recipient had the necklace hung on the entry of his/her cubicle for a week. At the end of that period, s/he then determined the next deserving recipient. There were never words and/or comments involved (nor apparently were any required) in the un-ceremonious hand-off and was usually done at end-of-week with noone around. Monday's were always fun.
One team member (our loveable village idiot) owned it for a month. *That's right after getting it, he bestowed upon himself for the next three weeks.

Talk about a pack of wolves. You all chased him away.
To the OP: I don't foresee that ever happening to me but I don't doubt it happened to you. However, if it had happened to me, I would have just cleaned it up and taped it together rather than getting stitches.
The solution by gDMJoe a couple posts back looks promising.

Please return your seats to the upright position and PLEASE stay-off the race track if you're just learning to drive.
That, that, that, that's all folks. Carry-on.
