Please let me know if anyone else is experiencing this:

You're on the highway with the cruise set to 65 (for some of you 95) and you speed up to pass a truck, let's say to 70 mph. You pass the truck and slowly let off the gas to allow the cruise control to re-engage. Instead of catching at 65 mph, my truck likes to decelerate to 60 and then rev the RPM's up to 3-4K RPMs to catch back up to 65.

Am I the only one who doesn't find this normal?

mine does the same thing, pretty annoying. it also does it sometimes when i first set the cruise... its odd because it usually sets without any problems...

thanks

mine sets fine, just acts up at other times. the only time i don't mind it revving up is if i'm taking a steep hill on the highway.

I read your post earlier and then I went out to run some errands, I went on the Interstate and was trying to see if it happened to me. I didn't notice it doing that. I set it at 60, passed someone up at 70, then let go of the gas, and it went right back down to 60 with no problem. I don't know. This is my first time having a vehicle with cruise control. I'm still trying to get used to it.

That's awesome! Thanks for trying. Guess I'll have to do the same...getting used to it.

Mine does the same thing, its very annoying and pisses me off. I believe my wifes 04 Highlander does the same thing, so it just might be a Toyota thing

My manual does it sometimes

That is the biggest gripe I have with my Tacoma.

I haven't noticed mine doing this, but I'll give it a try today.

I drove to town today and tried to make my Tacoma do the same. I didn't do like your's, mine resumed speed very smooth.

The only time my cruise will do what you describe is when I have to pass on a hill. After passing the speed will drop below the set speed, the auto trans will drop down from D to 4, rpms go up until set speed is attained.
