Aftermarket Cruise Control setting for economy

I have an aftermarket Audiovox cruise control in my pickup. I had a wire cut through, so while re-wiring it and having the book out, I found some switch settings...one of which controls the response of the unit.

For testing, I am setting this to it's lowest setting which should mean that it "pushes" the pedal to the floor slower. This should equate somewhat to being more gentle on the acceleration.

I don't drive the truck too much, but do have a log on MPG for it, so I should know whether or not it works in the next month or two... (giving several runs to get more solid results)

So...anyone else tried this?

Jim
