i wedge my right foor between the gas pedal and transmission tunnel.
it will aslo help to be proactive and watch for hills and speed up accordingly
to build momentum, just watch for the fuzz! on the downhills get off the gas once you have reached the top, properly timed you will save a bit of gas until you have to brake... proper driving techniques can save a lot of juice on a rig your size.

I tried to not use the cruise control and seem to have my right foot fall asleep! Must need more exercise.... I will give it a try and see what happens. Thanks
