Gas pedal piviot issues.

Ah right. I forgot about recent history with Toyota and stuck gas pedals. Move the pivot point to the bottom and you shouldn't be able to have a floor mat

I was hoping for a more fun reason than lawyers.

yah, my G is drive by wire but has the traditional pedals. same with my honda fit.

im use to driving either pedal style so i dont really care, but i did have issues with my current all season floor mat getting into the way of the travel of my pedal on my fit. i had to cut a slit in the floor mat so that the pedal will have full stroke. with the Z's organ pedal, no such issue.

that reminds me the XJ of my father's, one time he asked me to take a look at it cause it doesn't have any power even he floors it.

I check it out and pull the floor mat backward for couple inches....

Just restore 60whp for his Jag...
