Cruise control is very doable on a subaruvanagon.
You either get all the Vanagon parts out of a donor vanagon ..........
And the stock subaru throttle servo even connects directly to the vanagon
valve/gizmo in the engine compartment.
Or, you get an aftermarket system, and those are generic, meant to fit on
many types of cars.
And...........for long drives I put my left foot over on the gas sometimes.
That's very relieving.

Too bad. The 50 cent "brick on the pedal" cruise control won't work for
you. :-)
