That's a dumb idea. How am I supposed to control the steering wheel with my knee
when I have to use it to hold down the gas pedal? I mean, with both hands doing
other things, there's no way to steer!
And your gas mileage will improve a ton if you actually use it, rather than erradic
driving, like that which gives you pleasure. You must not live in a flat state,
because in the midwest you can drive for hours and make almost no elevation changes.
Then where's the fun in driving?
