Do you like cruise control?

I’ve been using my cruise a lot lately on a 2000 ft climb I do regularly up to a mountain pass. 3rd gear on the way up at 57mph is about 3500rmp. 4th gear on the way down at 57mph works perfect with the engine braking. The speed limit is 50mph so no worries about getting a ticket since there are always people passing me heading up and down. The NHP is always stopping speeders on this road. As stated in a previous post, cruise with a manual is a great setup.

 

for the 2008 model the system was tweaked. My truck behaves alot better than my old man's 07

 

But you shouldn't stop lovin' the CC, just start hatin' the asshats. Yes, the CC really makes them stand out. It's like watching an accordion. The accordion of ignorance. No wonder gas demand is so high.

 

They drive me friggin' nuts!

 

Probably the single most frustrating thing about the long road trips I take each summer.
3rd time they try pass me I abruptly move into the passing lane, seems to wake them up.

 

i like it alot...especially since this is the 1st vehicle that I have ever seen that's manual with cruise control...

 

The manual has a better setup, in that you can use whatever gear you please, unlike the auto.

 

After 22,000 miles and 29 months of ownership of my Gen2, I have honestly never used my cruise control... ever! So tomorrow, on my way to work i'm going try and see if it works lol...

 

I use it once or twice a year.

 

I don't know how to take a long road trip without it, or drive in the dead of night without it. I wish my commute was not so short and I could use it more often.

 

I have a love hate relationship with my cruise. Being Instrumentation and controls guy myself I would love to be able to retune it, so it would not be so quick to drop a gear when on a small hill. Let the speed drop by about 5 mph first. I usually end up giving more gas to the pedal once I start to hit a hill. The cruise did get worse after the lift and 33's.

 

I'm the opposite, I would like it more responsive......

 

Had cruise control on one car in my life. It's useless in CA.

 

DAMN I love it!

Put her in cruise...pry my knee under the wheel to steer...and browse the web on my blackberry.

Technology never ceases to amaze!

 

My momma say she say's that Blackberry's is the devil

every time I make the drive from San Diego to Sacramento there is always at least 3 people playing leapfrog with me.

 

I will give the cruise control a workout tomorrow and Sunday. A buddy of mine and I are travelling from Northern Virginia down I-81 to Brisol Motor Speedway for the Nascar Sprint Cup race.

 

I found that using it before and after the addition of the supercharger its better, it usually does not downshift now, but going up in high elevation its useless

 

i like cruise but the taco's is the worst i've ever experienced

 

I love my cruise control... Seems to drop 2-3mph on a hill, but quickly gets back to the set speed. I don't see what all the fuss is about.
