I doubt it has anything to do with geography; maybe it's just not a BIGJake111 thing. I wouldn't own a car without it. Not useful in the twisties, but it is wonderful to have on any kind of longer trip with more or less straight roads (we do have some of those in the west), or where you want to maintain a steady speed. You should try using it, it's addicting, although you probably don't need it to drive from home to school and back. Where I live there are 9 stoplights in a 100 mile radius, all within a town 2 miles long (Jackson, WY). Maybe it is geography...

Trips to Atlanta or Charlotte get by well enough with the foot on the pedal. For me it's just an annoying stick near my right knee haha!

As another member mentioned psm, I can vouch for TC or PSM, definitely on an S, it may be hard to cut loose in a 986, but they give you the confidence to push your limits. The little blinking TC light is like a little slap on the wrist to calm down.
