Just thought I would share my idea once more since I did awhile back and someone tried it and really liked it. Many of you have suggested pillows, foam coolers, sleeping bags in their stuffsacks, but I found a cheap and easy footrest that works great- it is also safe and adjustable. Best part is that it can just get hosed off when dirty and is pretty indestructo :thumbsup:
Take a really long pool noodle (or two shorter ones) and cut them into 6 equal lengths as wide as the car's footwell area. Usually about 18" is right. Stack them in a pyramid shape and use x- large rubber bands or cordage (shoelaces, clothesline, whatever you have) and connect them together. You can make it flat or triangular or add more noodles depending on what works better. We've used ours now for 2 years and it hasn't fallen apart yet!
