    I have that problem, too.   I found a round cushion...I think it comes
from a medical supply, as a back support or something.   Its about 4" in
diameter and about 12" long, foam rubber with a zip on cover, round...   I
put that under my gas pedal leg sometimes on long drives and it keep me
comfortable by supporting my leg.   I also use it behind the small of my
back sometimes, to keep that from hurting after a 14+hr drive....   That is
a really simple aid to comfort when you do a marathon driving session like
I sometimes do when I have a destination and a limited time to get there.
