I spend 60 miles a day in my V8 commuting to work and back, 95% on
divided interstate highway, against the normal rush hour traffic, so the
highway is relatively clear, definitely need to have a good radar
detector in these cars, these cars enjoy stretching their legs!!   :-)

Subject: [V8] Any magic tricks re: cruise-control in-op

Well I did my first trip in the V8.  A quicky 3hr each-way drive to Iowa

and back to pickup my pooch and help the bro install his new home
theater. 
 Turns out whilst we were on a cable-pickup run Mr DeHoff (the
prev-owner) 
saw me driving it, but was unable to catch up.  What a small world.
Anyway I noticed that it was far, far to easy to cruise at 80++++mph 
speeds where I clearly shouldn't be.
My cruise is currently in-op, and I now know I need it.
No tickets yet, but they were close calls.

So I will first chase after the easy stuff like vac lines, and brake 
switches.
Already checked the fuse...
Once that is exhausted does anyone have the magic cruise diagnostic 
flow-chart?

I do dig this V8 thang!
24.2mpg actual highway fuel burn.  cruising between 75 and 85mph.
