Do manuals have cruise control. I assume as long as you are in the correct gear for the set speed you could have it.? thanks

edit: thanks.

Yeah, you could have it in any gear on cruise control. As long as you are going X MPH, can't remember what the minimum speed for cruise control is, 35 or 40 I think. Been 6 months or so since I have used it.

Yea, mine does. However it seems that the accelerate thing doesnt work, but its probably designed that way since it cant downshift. You have to turn it off and reset the cruise if you want to go faster.

Ya it works fine. Unless youre like me and youre is slipping something fierce. I was going down the highway the other day, and the "all or nothing cruise control accelerator kicked in on a hill and all the sudden VRRROOOOMMMm there go m rpms! lol. Ive always wondered though, cruise seems to be for mellow, economical touring, then why is it that when you press the resume/acclerate after youve slowed down for something, why does it speed up so fast? I mean, not exactly great on the whole mileage department. Not just camaros either, every car ive ever driven does it...
