Every time I take my Buick GL8 on a long trip, I use the cruise control. The buttons are located in the multifunction button area on the right side of the steering wheel, where there are a few small buttons grouped together. Usually, the innermost one is the cruise control switch—press it to activate. Next to it is the speed setting button; while driving, first accelerate to your desired speed and then tap it. The outermost one might be for adjusting speed or canceling, such as a light tap to temporarily deactivate. The steering wheel is designed this way mainly for convenience, allowing operation without taking your hands off the wheel to avoid distraction. After all, the GL8 is an MPV, and family trips on the highway rely on it for effortless driving. At first, you might confuse the buttons, but after a few tries, it becomes second nature. Remember to keep the system software updated to improve responsiveness.
