Doesn't every city have a big ass pyramid in the mud?

Those were some confidently short bursts.

You made it! That's the point. They are 2 different tools for 2 different situations. One sets a constant speed. The other follows the flow of traffic. Glad I could clear that up for you. I'll continue to use both.

Sure. When I set the cruise, it is because I would like to go a certain speed. I'll pass if I need to. Setting the cruise to 70 and then realizing you're traveling 65 behind someone on the highway is annoying. Furthermore, it reduces fuel economy gaining back the speed that got scrubbed off. Additionally, I prefer to be a consistent driver. Varying speeds while the cruise is set seems counterintuitive at times when the traffic is light.

I use it all the time on the highway.

I replied to another comment on this as well. I wasn't very clear with what I meant, my apologies. I was referring to turning the adaptive part off, and going back to just regular old cruise control.

I was referring specifically to the adaptive part, and going back to dumb cruise. I wasn't clear, my apologies.

I'm fine with adaptive cruise, however, I would also like to be able to turn it off quickly and easily if the situation calls for it.

This is why I chose a Mazda. Buttons for everything. I didn't even realize I had a touchscreen until cleaning the interior one day with the radio going.

This sums it up. No other group is willing to stand up on these topics. Do I think they're perfect? No. They're human. Humans who never anticipated leading a worldwide movement with so much time in the spotlight. I also completely understand the organization wanting to pick its legal battles closely. This does mean that the chapters should be locked in stride with the message from TST. If they spread too thin, they lose appeal and effectiveness. Hone in on religion. Keep pressure there until it is no longer needed. THEN move on.

This is the part I always find infuriating, regardless of who is being interviewed.

Generally these search and rescue dogs are completely different dogs. They are highly effective, but trained different than protection dogs.
