who the hell cares what chuck norris had?

if you've ever road tripped, then driven a track day, then road tripped home to a swollen ankle because of the pedal feel, cruise is your savior.

Well your ankle is made out of ***** then cause I don't see how you can ankle trouble from moving a peddle up an down. then agian my ankle isn't like yours.
Maybe you should trade the evo for a Ford Taurus.

I have had cruise on all my previous cars and never used it at all. I think I tried it once on my GSR (Integra) just to see if it worked. So no I dont miss it

I agree. I have been on a couple of long road trips, and I have not once wished it had cruise control. I have cruise control in my truck and I never use it.

it isn't from moving it up and down, it's from maintaining the same speed, another thing many evo drivers just can't master. All they think they know is WOT and 100+.

If you're such a great driver, thats so hardcore, then i guess i'll see you out at Sebring, or Homestead-Miami sometime soon right? Because you're all about USING the car in a performance aspect. Right?

rostra is a good unit, i give it a 7/8 - outta 10.

Not oem, but it gets the job done relatively well.

I hate my EVO for long trips!! My interpretation of my EVO:

Neeee, thunk(expansion joint), thunk, thunk, thunk, bang, thunk, rattle, thunk, squeak, thunk, and I've only travelled a 1/2 mile!!


On blacktop road it's fine or maybe the expansion joints in La. just suck, but I'd drive the Hyundai or the Minivan way before I'd drive my EVO on a long distance trip...aggravating.

right, now imagine trying to keep a speed 8-10 over the posted for 20 hrs straight (1200 miles).

death.
