I tested > it. I've only had cruise control in one passenger car. It was a rental with an automatic transmission. It was useless in upstate New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire, all of which are mountainous. Most of the tractor trailers I drove did have cruise control. It was very handy when crossing Kansas. You could set it for 65 mph and get busy making a sandwich. It worked a little better since the diesels had compression braking.
