Ford F250/350 brake pedals

I have a F350 with power adjustable pedals. No matter how they are adjusted with the power adjust it seem to me that the brake pedal and gas pedal are too close to the same height. Sometimes when I have my foot on the brake I also am press the gas pedal if I am not careful to have my foot all the way over to the brake pedal. I have never had this trouble with other trucks. Is there a way to adjust the pedal height. Might it need brake fluid or adjustment? I plan on asking the dealer but thought some of you might have ideas.

I have a 08 F250 with adjustable pedals and have not noticed that problem. You may want to have your dealer take a look at it to see if the power adjuster is working correctly.

I have an 04 and never noticed a problem either. I also use alternate left or right foot on brake pedal.

Never noticed that problem.. Never use the left foot for braking.. old habit I guess. That would be a automatic flunk on the school bus driving exam...

Have the adjustable peddles and have no problems with them, but then I have them all the way to the floor. I also use 2 feet, not just right.

Yes they are adjustable but in indepently. So adjusting them does not solve the problem of them being at the same level.
