What the crap cruise control?!?

Clearly you have an exceptional Taco.

 

With the cruse control on, it is not the downshifting going up the hills that bothers me as much as the downshifting going down hills. I don't care if the car gains a mph or two coasting down a hill. It seems to do whatever it needs to do to keep the speed within 1/10 mph of where it is set. That means downshifting twice on a minor uphill or downhill.

 

There's a poll on here that so far, shows it pretty even between the or's & the sports, the last time I looked

 

I've found over the years that cruise control paired with a manual tranny works the best. The manual tranny guys don't seem to be chiming in much.

 

You have pics of your trucks Tank Average? Those numbers are close to unbelievable.

 

I was thinking that's the highest MPG I've seen reported. If that were the norm, Toyota would really have a problem keeping up with demand.

 

I have seen some that utilize unicorn farts that have drastically increased their mileage so it's not unprecedented. The problem is training them to fart directly into your tank.

 

I hear K&N is coming out with a washable, unicorn fart-infused air filter soon.

Who is leading up the group buy?

 

That is genius. I could definitely see this resolving the logistical problems of capturing the unicorn gas.

 

trade for a 6 speed

 

Or a Prius

 

Yeah..back to my original thread..My dealer was going to give me what I paid for my 14 with no miles, towards a 16... both 2.7 A/T...After the test drive, I said no way...That transmission never stopped shifting... When I posted my experience someone said I was full of canal water, that they had no issue.....By the looks of these threads, I wasn't full of canal water after all..... All of that justification why it does that... computer programing, double overdrives & every thing else right down to transmission fluid levels....What a disappointment in this day & age...I really feel for guys who dumped all that $$$ on a new truck & have to live with manufacturer's experiments with the public as Guinea pigs....I mean really, should using the cruise control have a rule book as to when & how to use it? Don't like bashing Toyota but I get so frustrated how corporate gets away with what they do.....and the little guy pays....

 

......

 

Why are you shouting? No point in getting an aneurysm over a problem with cruise control. Definitely a first world problem. All that $$$? Hell, I saw three RAV 4's on the dealers lot last weekend that were MSRP higher than my TRDOR 4x4. Don't feel sorry for me. I like my truck. And help me out. You say back to my original thread but you are not the OP

 

Its his world and we're just living in it.

...a terrible...world...of ellipsis....

 

Sorry about the bold....there are so many threads on all different topics, regarding this never ending shifting transmission, I lost track of where I started.....and hey if your good with all that slip & slide, its all good... works for me...I'll keep with my 4 speed A/T that knows where it wants to be....with or without the cruise being on.....Lets go places !!!
