Cruise Control on Manual Transmission.

All mine had cruise control...

 

Sure they do.

Usually when you touch the clutch, there is a switch on it that kills the cruise. Same with the brake.

She will come out of cruise when you make a shift. However, there should be a resume so you can trip that toggle once you get back into the right gear for resuming a certain speed.

Cruise works all the way down to 35 mph. Most all my trucks since 1990 had cruise of some kind on them. Moved away from the spring toggle trigger and stick system on the older ones without.

 

You had the fancy cruise...our regional delivery drivers had the adjustable throttle stick(mop handle wedged between the seat and the throttle, then adjust the seat to the speed you wanted)

 

Cruise on a manual transmission in a truck just holds the RPM's at the set amount, nothing else (some newer trucks have more controls like auto-Jake's and the like). It's used for high-idling and holding speed on the highway.

 

That's not true. It's not a throttle lock. Mine will resume, decel, hold speed what ever you want. Geez people. My manual pick up even has cruise control. Where do you people come up with this ####

 

manual transmission trucks have had true cruise controls that control speed and jakes for more than 30 years
