Cruise control question

I have found it saves gas as well and typically use this feature on long haul trips. It is the constant fuel rate of delivery that saves fuel rather than some ECM trick. I rarely use this feature in the Chicagoland due to traffic.

If you are traveling on a highway that has many inclines and the trans is constantly downshifting you can get better mileage without the cruise. 90% of the time using cruise will yield better mileage.

like KOZ said .....it depends on the road......our car likes to downshift and accel it self going up hill....causing the mpg to go down......but on flat roads its using the cruise is better....
also the speed at which u cruise at makes a slight difference.....

To obtain maximum fuel economy you would not want want to use cruise control for the reasons listed above... but as stated above for about 99% of drivers cruise control is the most efficient way of driving on the freeway.
