I have a 99 Ford Contour and I like to use my cruise control the make sure I hold a consistent speed to use less gas. Does the cruise control do anything negatively to the battery, alternator, engine, transmission other components?
 
no, i just make sure i keep my foot near the brake just incase you know... cause you don't wanna be streching your legs when the car in front slams on the brakes lmao...
 
Use the cruise control - it harms nothing and it tends to keep the blue lights from reflecting in your rear view mirror.
 
No, it is actually good because the revolutions stay about the same instead of going up and down with the movement of the throttle. It saves on gas too, as you mentioned.
