I have never used the cruise control/speed sign dependent feature.
In this part of the country if you are going the speed limit you are a menace to those around you. 5-over will avoid the ire, but you still better stay in the pokey lane. 10-over and you can join the flow. :)

Not expecting it'll change your preference, but just FYI in the 12" display personalization configuration menus on my Ecoboost Lariat one is able to set a 'speed tolerance' in 1 MPH increments positive or negative.

The effect is, for example, when the system observes a sign posted at 60 MPH, if you've set the 'tolerance' at +5 MPH it will set your speed at 65 MPH while also displaying the observed 60 MPH sign indicator.

One can still use the +/- on the steering wheel to override/adjust the speed while maintaining sign-reading cruise operation, and any speed you set manually is not subjected to the 'tolerance' adjustment.

Thanks for the detailed description!

Since the +- will override the settings, then I just might play around with it.

Who am I kidding? Of course I will. I'm addicted to exploring all the crazy and amazing features and options and even nuances of this new platform.

Lol, I hear ya ;)

As I've been playing with this particular feature I found that the +5MPH tolerance I'd like on the highway is equally applied on 30MPH posted roads (and that's not acceptable for me).

I've settled (for now) with tolerance set at +2 and use the +/- to adjust as needed to match the flow on the highway.

I do find I like the sign-reading cruise, more than once I've been guilty of missing a sign change in the posted speed while the system catches it more often than not.

Heck if I know how it does it, but on a 2-lane otherwise 55MPH rural highway I pass a big white "35 MPH when flashing" school zone sign almost daily and the system consistently ignores that when not flashing ?!?!

Have Fun with your explorations! :)
