Re: Simple Radar

I can't recall but either the new Lexus, BMX or Infinity has an option for
radar controlled cruise control.  If you come up on a car while on cruise
and can't pass it'll slow your car down while you follow at a safe distance
and if the car in front speeds up, you do to and when you can pass it
resumes!  Find a wreck and get the pieces or get a manual.  I'm sure someone
here will tell us which car has the option and who it works.
