Guess so.
Maybe if it vibrated and gave your foot a massage.
I dont like to get too comfortable on long trips.
Thats when highway hypnosis starts to set in...

I have the Steeda one - I used to have problems with my left ankle swelling up and the doctor couldn't find any reason for it. I put the dead pedal in and the change in angle seems to have taken care of the problem, no more swollen ankle at the end of the day (I drive 45 miles one way to work every day, plus all the driving in between commute time).

Good to hear, better is better. And at least you dont have to get rid of the cars.

I kinda like the dead pedal. I agree with posts above that the angle your foot rests at, is comfortable.
