Turn Signal and Cruise Control
They are in the wrong places... LOL...I keep turning on Cruise when I try to signal a turn. How long does this take to get used to...I have had the car one week.

Thanks

I find if I slide my left hand down the wheel to turn on the directionals I miss the cruise control lever. Amazing the things one has to invent to drive modern cars.

Yeah, the cruise control has been like that on MBs for as long as I can remember.

What I hate is the controls on the end of the signal indicator wand because I always end up turning on the wipers when I flash the brights.

Always takes some getting used to especially if you hop between a MB and another car
