The only additional cruise control feature that I'd like is to be able to maintain the same speed downhill; the AI runs away much too easily. I've noticed the C Class loaners they give me during a service all have that feature.

This is the one time that I believe the more capable cruise is problematic. Down hill it will ride the brakes which is the wrong technique. Must admit, with a set of disks on the trailer, maybe it would just not be a problem at all.
I use it sometimes, but watch for overrevving and disengage if truck is working too hard.

The OP was asking about cruise control for his Sprinter. For towing a trailer, that's a different set of considerations!
