I am a regular user of cruise control while driving, both for ease and felt it seemed more fuel efficient.I engage it at any opportunity where the speed is over 60 KM/HR and traffic is flowing. I do however keep coming across failed cruise control instances on the roads. In fact, I came across the following advice in Gulf News after the last incident locally: https://gulfnews.com/uae/what-to-do-if-your-cars-cruise-control-fails-1.2275388 I wonder what is your view about this. Do many people use cruise control?

I did a trip from abu dhabi to al ain and was trying different speeds to see which gave me the best mileage. Mine is 3.8 LWB 2008 model. The car was empty and just me driving. Scenario 1: driving at 90km/h gave me 9.3km/l Scenario 2: driving at 110 km/h gave me 8.9km/l Any comments on whether these numbers are good or bad and I will check the spark plugs, filter and tyre pressure and oil. What is the ideal tyre pressure for city driving? 35 psi?

Just read today morning that all cars in UAE will have below efficiency rating mandatory from 2017. This new move seems very good for educating consumer before buying the vehicle, however I am not understanding the need of creating 5 levels of rating within just 1 L/100 km (1.71 km/liter) difference. All cars that I have ever own falls much below the "Very Poor" rating. http://gulfnews.com/news/uae/transport/cars-in-uae-to-have-fuel-efficiency-rating-next-year-1.1678219 14.2 km/liter (7.04 L/100 km) = Very Good 13.6 km/liter (7.35 L/100 km) = Good 13 km/liter (7.69 L/100 km) = Average 12.5 km/liter (8 L/100 km) = Poor 12.49 km/liter (8.006 L/100 km) = Very Poor
