I got it from the 2nd owner who told me it was "loaded" (leather, power everything, ...) and it was completely stock. However, the other day when I got on the freeway, I realized my Mustang doesn't have cruise control!! Does anyone know if there a way to install cruise control (perhaps from another Mustang) in mine? I know you can buy "generic" cruise control kits, but I don't want something cheap or goofy looking. Any tips would be appreciated.

Welcome to MM first off. Where abouts in Oregon are you?

Huh, I woulda thought all stangs (96-98) with the leather interior (or "loaded" as you said) would have had cruise control. Mine did.

Yeah, I was pretty surprised to see that it wasn't included. Sounds like ripping one of another Mustang would be quite a pain, so maybe I'll start looking around for generic kits. Thanks!
