Default pedal position

Anyone else find the position of the pedals uncomfortable, especially the brake pedal? Either that or I must have big *****.

I think my underwear is too tight. The brake pedal is too much in the middle for me. I have to twist my leg in an angle. Doing so kinda squeezes the nut. Could be an old age thing or tight undies lol.

Actually I think the brake is too stiff. Makes my calf stiff.

Just broke out laughing at work.. good description!

Doesn't bother me, but I do keep my left leg on the dead pedal.

LOL...jock strap!

No issues here. Pedal position seems similar to every other Lexus product I've had, save the top hinged accelerators in the ESs vs the floor hinged pedals in the GS and LSs.

Tight jeans and a fat wallet will do it. More comfy with wallet out.
