An option for more aggressive cruise control. When climbing some of the really steep hills around here, car is rolling @35 and cruise is set @35, then the speed just drops going up the hill to about 20 when it reaches the top, then cruise regains speed to 35. With manual pedal usage one can maintain 35 all the way up. Even on some smaller hills it will drop 5mph or so. EcoCruise on = conserve energy up hills, EcoCruise off = maintain speed.
Also, should be able to initially set cruise to a speed below 25. Currently, one must set at 25, then hold in minus to desired speed below 25.
I test drove a Fusion Energi, it showed what speed cruise was set at on the left dash panel, Focus should have this too!

GO Times, why only 2 per day? M-F I could use 3 each day.
1. take my kids to school in the morning
2. go to work 3 hours later
3. leave work about 9 hours later.

Rule definition for cabin prep for GO Times. One could say,
If the outside temp is <45, prep to 85.
If the outside temp is >75, prep to 65.
Otherwise, prep to 72.
