When driving our Axis on cruise control and approaching a hill/rise/grade/etc. I'll just tap the gas pedal just enough to force a downshift right at the bottom of the hill. The cruise will then hold it in that gear up the hill without it dropping much speed at all.
I'll try that. In NC where I'll have that chance. I usually kill CC and use my foot. If she stays where she belongs, at least for a good part of the way then downshifts, I let that be. I don't want to labor the motor and the constant downshifting is not only annoying, it's concerning for the mentioned reasons.
