So, apparently "Automatic Speed Control" is another name for cruise control. There is a light on the dash that indicates that this feature is "ready". What I don't understand is why would there be a light on the dash on all the time that tells you that the cruise control is ready to use. When exactly would it not be ready to use?

EDIT: Nevermind. I pulled up a manual from this site and see that apparently I accidently have the cruise control turned on. I'll see if I can turn it off next time I go to my car.

There really should be a "ready/enabled" and an "active/in use" indicator IMMHO.

Yeah, I obviously thought it was confusing.

Well, after some fumbling around, I found the button on the cruise control that turned the light off.

I recently drove a GMC product, rented, wherein the indicator only came on if the cruise control was actually "in control". We really need both, armed, and working/active.
