A method of selectively adjusting one or more cruise droop settings based on past and present road loads includes receiving a cruise control operating mode initiation for a vehicle; receiving vehicle operation data; determining a current road load for the vehicle based on the vehicle operation data, wherein the current road load provides an indication of a load on the vehicle; maintaining a history of determined road loads while the vehicle is in the cruise control operating mode; and selectively adjusting a cruise control droop characteristic based on the current road load and the history of determined road loads.
