Default Speed tolerance suggestions

Have run into two frustrating items with the speed tolerance settings.

first is that when I am driving on local roads I like to have the speed tolerance set to 5 mph. When I am traveling on Interstate roads (or limited access roads) I like to have the speed tolerance set to 10 mph. Making this change on the fly is not easy and definitely takes your eyes off the road. Wish that Ford would allow you to change the setting from the console vice using the screen and slider to make the changes.... or putting a button on the navigation screen that will toggle from one to the other.

Second... Blue cruse is limited to 80 mph. However, speed limits on Interstate hwy can be as high as 75, 80 or 85 mph. It would be nice if they could use the speed tolerance setting to manage this vice a set value. So that If I have the speed tolerance set to 10 and the speed limit is 75 then the car can run on blue cruise at 85 MPH.

Thanks

I prefer a % tolerance, not a mph tolerance. Here in southern California, when I drive uphill, I go 55 on 65, when I go downhill, I go 80 on 65. Nobody follows the speed limit on the I-5. I eventually turned it off.
