On certain small bumps I would feel a very subtle clunk through the gas pedal.Turns out the adjustable pedal has quite a bit of slop in the left-right direction. I was surprised to note that if I just grabbed it with my hand it wobbled quite a bit.It doesn't look to be defective to me - just a little bit of sloppy design. There is no slop in the front-back axis (where the adjustment happens, and what you push again when you press on the pedal).I suspect certain bumps - especially those at moderate speeds that create the right kind of high-frequency jolt in the truck - cause the pedal to wobble.To "fix" it I adjusted the pedals closer to me, rolled up a section of microfiber towel and stuck it behind the gas pedal adjustment mechanism, then adjusted the pedals all the way back, thus compressing the microfiber between the adjustment mechanism and the firewall. This maintains enough pressure on the mechanism to keep it from wobbling.Seems to help, try it out. This seems to eliminate the sensation I was getting through the pedal over small bumps and road imperfections.</blockquote>
