In my experience, most cruise controls will engage at 35+ mph. You can then
decellerate as low as you wish by pressing the decel or coast button several
times until it cruises more slowly.

I'd like to remove the limits on my Wrangler as well, leaving only an RPM
limit. This would make it easier to concentrate on the terrain when moving
slowly, rather than concentrating on RPM or speed.
