Absolutely use cruise on the interstate. Once, I made the mistake of calculating the speed of a guy in the left lane and letting him come around me. I could see that he was cruising faster than me and I let him come around me. Once he was past me, I pulled into the left lane. He turned around and break checked me extremely heavy! Things got real for about 20 miles! Not sure if he was carrying but I was. Thankfully it didn’t come to that!!

Yep, set the cruise for the speed limit and get in the righthand lane and go.

This and let the speed-racers fly by! LOL Normally I stay off the interstates and run the slower side roads.

Nope

I control the vehicle I'm driving
Not some computer or sensors

And I believe there is a huge difference between being in control of your vehicle and just driving your vehicle

Your entire vehicle is nothing but a rolling computer and sensors, unless it's old.

I always try to do the speed limit use my cruise control. It really doesn't seem to matter what speed I'm doing or what lane I'm in. Either being passed or tail gated. Just the way it is now very frustrating.

Ol buddy of mine wanted me to drive a beat up truck, F-150 regular cab manual to Canada for him. Plan was to leave it at his camp for fishing/firewood truck over the summer. When I saw it I had my doubts that it would even make it to Canada. I said “does it even have Cruze Jonny?”. He said Ah brr, well kinda, you hold her to the floor and she’ll do 68.” Lmao. He followed in his beat up Toyota, we made it after various breakdowns and boarder trouble. grin

Yep. Never over 50 in a 55. So I can see birds and stop for roadkills, usually more like 35. Always pulling off for speedsters. I try to stay off of interstates though.
