And the cruise control still wanders between +\/- 5mph of what its set at, its definitely not set and forget like it is in every other car I’ve been in. But it does give me much better mileage than if I use my lead foot so I think for my twice weekly commute I shall use it more often.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
