    When I was installing the cruise control in the old GU2 I contemplated using the engine RPM signal instead of the tail shaft RPM, that way you could set RPM & have the safety of brake cutout. Would still work as cruise control in fourth or fifth, but could also be crawl control in low gears.

    Actually I tell a lie!

    Have used it on extreme cold snow trips for early morning trying to reach operating temp whilst finishing packing up camp.
