What quality do you associate 'stupid' within someone? (kbin.melroy.org)

Mine is the volume of their voice. If all that they can do is just talk too loudly with no reason for it and don't control the volume of their voice. That to me is a sign that you're a stupid fuck. Because people think the louder they are, the more righteous and attention seeking they are. Than it is to just listen, digest and respond accordingly to anyone talking around you.

While I agree with you, I would like to point out one exception I've noticed: veeeeeery occasionally you'll run into someone with an old junker that either has a broken cruise control or an old, not fully maintained cruise control system.

My old busted up, 70% rusted-out ’99 Ford Ranger that I had bought for like $1000 had the latter problem, where the cruise control would work, but its accuracy sat at around ±1–2 mph or so.

It's annoying when the vacuum system has a small leak so, over that long road trip, the car is always slooooowly losing speed. It's such a nightmare to diagnose, at least as a DIYer.

My car is a 2015 and didn't come with a cruise control lol :(.

To be fair, I can drive at and maintain a consistent speed without it, though I didn't have to often thanks to stop and go traffic 🎉.

Like, at all? From the factory? That's very strange, I would think.

I drove a base model Ford Fiesta about five years ago that did not ship with cruise control functionality of any kind. I was surprised as well, but the practice does exist.

Yup. Toyota Yaris '15 stock. Lowest trim they offer.
