Does anyone use cruise control anymore?

The family and I spent 4 days doing what ended up being a driving tour of Vermont last week. NYC to Stowe and then Manchester to Princeton Jct. were the two big runs, and not once did I use cruise control.

I realized during that trip that I haven't set a cruise control setting for at least 5 years, and I typically drive 18 to 20,000 miles per year - a lot of that on highways. I just never think to set it. Even during the long boring stretches of some of the interstates around here.

Does anyone else NEVER use this handy gizmo? Does anyone else feel they can utilize cruise control when they want? Is there something about driving fast cars - and being an enthusiast - lead one to want to have control at all times?

I've been wondering about these questions the last few days.
