Economy mode on an Allison Transmission
Does anyone know if there is any benefit to turning on Economy mode while using cruise control on a highway? If I've got the cruise control turned on at 64 miles per hour, will economy mode help? ...

When you put the tranny in mode it will indicate so on the display. We do not have a separate light indicating the tranny is in mode.
Excellent explanation from Wolfe10. As mentioned all the mode switch does is delay downshifts and accelerate upshifts. Lower RPM gives best mileage. Mode makes no difference if you are on flat ground in high gear.
So the Economy does not light up?
It does not on ours. We just get a message on the shift panel that mode is on.
