check for clay and shit up around the back of engine transmission area building up heat and transfurring it thru into the cabin also check for clay etc around the exhaust as well

something else is the rear cabin heater if that is turned to high then the water pipes travel under the drivers feet too

heat from the auto, the torque converter generates lots of heat
my truck has no carpet, and in winter its great.
in summer off road I lock to converter and some of the heat goes away.
if you want you can get heat shield pad.
