Ford, please consider a right side foot rest.

There's a record feedback in the car where you can send Ford feedback. Whether Ford listens to it or not... Who knows but it's likely more direct than this forum, even though it is the best, IMHO.

For the driver or passenger?

Not sure exactly what you’re describing.

I'm going to guess that's a non-starter from a regulatory/safety perspective. We've had cruise control for decades and I've never seen a vehicle implement a foot rest for your right foot.

Driver. Long distance I'd like a rest for my right foot like my left.

I'm sure they felt that way about self driving cars.

It's the gas/power pedal.
But I gotta confess, it doesn't get a lot of rest.

I can't imagine why this would be necessary, and I'm sure it's illegal for safety reasons.

They still do. You can’t buy one. ?

Wow, just wow ?

This request goes right up there with the "put the dang old speedometer in the center" crowd.

Sorry, no car has this and it’s honestly a bad idea. If you put a right foot dead pedal in the optimum location, now you have to hold your foot to the left to use the accelerator, which would get tiring really quick if you don’t use cruise control. Brake pedal would now be extremely far left and almost impossible to use properly with the right foot. Pedal location would be so far outside of the standard spacing and location there would be a ton of pedal mishaps with new drivers and lawsuits to follow.

There isn’t room to put a dead pedal to the right because of the center console and crash safety.

The solution is to cross your legs, or learn to rest your right foot on the accelerator lightly in cruise control, or on the floor right below the pedal. The Mach-E is no different than any other car in that regard.

Have you tried putting your foot directly on the floor? It's really amazing how little effort that takes!
