yeah, too long a trip, cruise is not to be relied upon... but often times if you are in that position, cruise or not, you are going off the road... many times, your foot gets pressed down even harder prior to an accident. so it's not like cruise is to be blamed.
but that goes for everything. if you are too tired to realize that you would be too tired to drive without assistance, you have to pull over.
that brings up another thing i have done on long road trips and what would help... big cargo area without things that will dig into my back so i can lie down and sleep!
just thinking... i need some good cupholders... (seems most NA cars have that covered, and also in the article the cubbies and stuff covers it)... but i'll get a couple coffees... then a couple hours later stop for more and forget to throw out the old cups, so i put them in other cupholders... and one holds my case for glasses and phone... so i need em all over!
oh, just thought of another... some cars just have one trip... some have two... and some of our new ones have two trip screens. tell you time, kms, l/100 avg, and a couple other things. nice to have that. i always keep one trip set to the entire time i have a demo, so it's nice to have a second one for tanks of gas, trips, etc.
