    5'6" and I hate the seat belts in the Pete I am driving now. No adjustment slider on the side, so the damn thing just about cuts across my face.

    I don't remember the last time I wore sneakers or shoes. I love my Addias slippers in the summer. I wear Ugg ones in the winter, unless it's snowing.

    The reason I wondered, is I have a hard time with the shoulder harnesses in most vehicles, they strangle me if they don't have an adjuster on them and my International doesn't have one.

    Does being too tall present problems too?

    I'm 5'2".

    I have a stupid question. Does anyone have a hard time reaching the pedals comfortably? I was practicing driving yesterday and couldn't rest my feet on the floor while pressing gas/brake if that makes any sense. I had to hold my feet up to press the brake/gas. I had the seat pulled up as far as it would go. I had the seat raised a little so I could see over the steering wheel lol. I was still not sitting all the way back in the seat either because I couldn't reach. Any suggestions? Any products? It was very uncomfortable to drive that way. I was driving a Volvo in case that makes a difference. Thanks.

    I'm 5'1" and have the same problem. If the seat is high enough to see over the dash I can't reach the floor. I have seen these pedal extenders, but haven't tried them because I drive a different vehicle every day.
