    First a little about me. First time hybrid owner. Don't think I'm saving the planet here, but want better gas mileage than my F-350 or lifted Jeep Wrangler can provide. My commute to work (semi driver) is close to an hour so the Prius was an obvious choice as a commuter.

    My question is: Is there a way to permanently turn off this f***ing adaptive cruse control. I just want regular cruise that I cancel and resume. I don't need the car dropping to the speed of the vehicle I'm following and then flooring it once I get over (seems to me the adaptive cruise is wasting more fuel than its saving)

    Thanks for any help.

    Press and hold the cruise control on/off button to go into standard cruise control.
