Default Why Cruise Control Doen't Work (I Think)

I could be wrong, but cruise control works best on powerful vehicles with automatics - the anthesis of the 5-speed Insight.

My foot does not suffer much from long trips. I'd bet that most Insight drivers desiring better comfort would enhance or replace the seat.

If you don't/can't hypermile - that's OK. Just be aware that cruise controls are probably a bad fit on very lightweight 5-speeds, esp. hill climbing....
