Today while out on my '23 RT with the ACC engaged, as I approached a traffic light and started downshifting without touching the brakes or clutch, the cruise control stayed on and the speed didn't slow down (it just revved the engine higher).

Now I have it wired so my top-case light now also works as a running light (In stock trim it only works as a brake light). I also added a tag light above the TFT, so I can see what the brake lights are doin...
