    Have your cruise control adjusted to lose about 5 mph when going uphill. You'll gain about 3-5 mpg.

    Well, I'd prefer not to be rear-ended by the clods who think my doing 55 in a 55 zone means they can tailgate me.

    JUst for kicks, how does one 'adjust' the CC to not hold speed so closely?...

    Kupe,

    This seems to be darn similar to your post yesterday in a thread you recieved replies to. Is there some purpose in duplicating it here?
