When the hand is there, it is much closer to C6's dash controls then if they were on the the steering wheel. These dash controls are lit up and easy to find where if they were on the steering wheel and not lit up (safety?), relatively small and bunched together, IMHO they would be harder to use. Dave is always right!

u have smileys on here, so i dunno if u are serious, but if u are autox'g, why are u listening to radio and even if it activates cruise, which it wont, u can still go as fast as u want and braking will instantly deactivate it. I agree with the posts about cost. gm just cheapin out. even their cheaper cars have steering wheel controls.
