The silver handle is a hand throttle attached to the gas pedal. It functions as a manual cruise control and allows you to rest your leg on long trips. It also help make precise throttle adjustments when hypermiling.

The "button" on top is a 3/8" lock nut that attaches the handle to the 3/8" all thread rod.
