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.
