    My new friend.
    That and trying to figure out what drivers aren't there or need updating or just don't work. Windows...feels like Linux, with more money.

    rofl -- it's probably on par with one of the worst cc I've ever used; I don't use it - so I removed it; look at all the space for activities!

    that was my expectation -- in da bin.

    Who said you have to remove cc to go turbo? Could have kept it if I wanted it. I just don't use it. Turbo can also honestly improve mpg.

    some how that doesn't surprise me. I mean even having the 2000 has provided enough surprises on it's own. :shrug:

    Mine's got that same (aftermarket) cc that everyones does, it works fine, little bit jerky at times, but I don't use it enough to let it bug me. I'm glad I have it though on long trips.

    Meh - We drove NM to CO -- camped -- then drove to northern MT a few weeks back. I drove all the way through WY without even thinking about using it. :shrug:

    Don't have it on the miat either (never did).

    Dunno - never used it much so I guess it'll be hard to miss. No real reason to remove other than cleaner? idk. idc.

    I drove SC to NM in a 93 miata -- no cruise. :shrug:

    People are different -- some folks still like automatics ;) -- you do you. :)

    I do like using it in my 2nd gen when driving down to SoCal. 395 is long and pretty straight CC set at 75 keeps the speeding tickets away.

    Fuck yeah, gimme cruise. Especially on long, boring lengths of tarmac, like 40W.
    I've been driving across the country on non-stop trips since the 90s. I have no ego attached to it, I'm good with some comfort.

    Lol kinda the same boat.
    They want too much for em though. I was test driving users at damn near the price of new and it started to feel dumb.
    The Volvos were more appealing tbh.
    (I'm just in fun mode now though.)

    I might just be weird. idk.

    I've never used it much in any of my cars -- even when it was a bit newer and nicer ('16 GolfR) -- might just be more a focus thing for me. idk. Hubs Veloster N has it and I still don't use it. lol.

    No I think you're on point really. I never, ever use it unless its a long haul trip. Even on 5 hour trips I don't think about it.
    Hows he like the Veloster by the way?
