CC is great on long hiway trips. I go to the Catskill Mtns. (upstate NY, US) (~130mi, ~3hrs) a few times every summer. I'm much more relaxed & less tired when I arrive even tho I use cruise on about half the trip. Adjusting it on hills is no big deal; keeps me alert. Didn't notice any difference in gas mileage.
