If you really want to save fuel then use the cruise control all the time. If you don’t use it now you’ll get 10-15% increase in mpg.

Let me jump in on this point... I drive a 16 Explorer and have a 13 mile one way commute to work which is about 60 % interstate type of driving... I can easily maintain 22.3 MPG overall... when relying heavily on cruise control verses about 20.5 mpg when driving without it...
