dead pedal is when you shoot someone whos riding a bike, and when they fall off, the bike keeps going

I thought that was the clutch. Then I found out my car was an auto

I had a 76 caprice classic with high beam switch in the floor, it was kinda nice.

also keeps from wearing out the carpet when your foot rests there.

I Like using that floor switch...I wish they still did that. It was easier to dim the lights.... in an auto anyway...

Those high beam switches on the floor use to be cool. If someone pissed me off at night i would pound that switch. Its not the same with it being on the column now.

My first truck was a 79 Chevy C-10 Custom deluxe with the foot pedal and it was kewl. My second vehicle a 76 Monte Carlo also same deal. Work truck a 66 F600 Load star also same deal. Project car 75 Dooge Monaco same deal again.
