We have been looking at replacing our travel trailer with a Class A in the 29-34 ft. range. My wife is only 4'11". Her feet do not touch the floor when she sits in the driver's seat, making driving very difficult if not unsafe. Same problem in the passenger seat, but we can get a stool to take care of that. Does anyone have this issue, and, if so, what Class A did you buy?We have started looking at Class C's because of this, but perfer the openness of the Class A driver/passenger area. Just wondering if there are any Class A's out there for the vertically challenged.

We have a friend with the same issue. They had blocks made. They share equal in driving now.Once he got the blocks the right thickness, he made them out of metal or some plastic stuff with spacers. Not here right now so can't ask.Some Class A diesels they can be adjusted to fit. I searched but did not come up with anything.There are many on-line that might work. http://www.creativemobilitygroup.com/shop-deprecated/pedal-mates-2/

I guess I would have to see if she is comfortable driving like that.Thanks!

Look at detachable wooden blocks while looking at MHs.

Why don't you look at a website for the physically disabled, there might be something there...............

Thanks! One thing I am wondering. Her left foot still would not be touching the floor, would that not be a problem?
