Hello, that's a nice video. If you don't mind may I ask you this question? Is it hard to drive a car with your left foot?

@gpapa1998

No, it is easy. Takes a little time for your left foot to get used to the micro adjustments that you do with the gas and the brake. I used to drive a standard so the left foot goes all the way in and all the way out. I drive and automatic now. I had some spinning of the tires and skidding at first. Now you would never know the difference you drove with me.

Thanks. Do you have a pedal extention that allows you to press the accelerator from the left side of the brake with you left foot? Or do you just reach over with your left foot to press the accelerator?

@gpapa1998 My truck has a left foot pedal extension for the gas. But I can drive any automatic, just reach over and gas with the left foot
