[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1391674, member: 3828"] Hmmm... On my 1st Gen FJR I decided to put on an audiovox CC. Im a relatively competent mechanic, made my livelihood from working on electromechanical devices for 40 years. I had no problem installing the AVCC. It did what it was supposed to, and was cheap at right around a hundo. But, being a guy that tries NOT to ride on the highway unless absolutely necessary, I found I didnt really use it all that much. I eventually removed it and sold it off used for almost what I paid for it. Simplify, I said. Fast forward 8 years and 100k FJR miles and I bought a 2014 ES model, which includes a factory CC. While it wasnt really something I thought I wanted or needed, I now find I use it a lot more than that old AVCC. It might be me that changed, or it might be the factory cruise is that much better, or even more likely it might be a subtle combination of the two. Only you could possibly know if the cost of adding the aftermarket cruise will be worth it for you. And even you may not know until after you try it. ;) [/QUOTE]
