Cruise control
#16
I am disappointed. I would have expected you would be sleeping in the new car checking it out!

I just looked it up in the manual. Apparently it says that "constant speed control mode" can be activated by long-pressing the cruise control button (for > 1.5 seconds). So I guess short press for dynamic radar cruise control and long press for constant speed cruise control
I wonder how much more industry criticism over their infotainment system design it's going to take before Lexus goes out and hires some talented user interface architects and comes up with a decent control system for all their features. I mean, C'mon, making you go through x number of menu selections to adjust the cool/heat levels in the seats???

I had a chance to test the dynamic radar cruise yesterday during a 100+ mile ride yesterday (along with lane centering assist) and it worked really well. I am impressed. The car slowed and braked when it had to and then picked up speed again. Only issue is if the road suddenly clears up ahead of you, it accelerates to your set speed very quickly and that unnerved me a bit.

Thanks Frank, that's as acceptable a solution as the old one, I guess. I'm not sure why Lexus doesn't make all these on/off features configurable in the cars settings. The auto-dimming rear-view mirror is another one that mystifies me. I should be able to set the default to off and turn it on if I need it.

Yes, that was written before I took delivery in April. Regardless, Lexus really needs to up their game in this area. A lot of poor/dumb design decisions went into this new system. Not to mention all the features that the LS 460 had that have been removed from the LS 500.
