Description of the problem	2006 tundra - have had truck only 2 weeks and took road trip. When using cruise control and starting up a modest hill vehicle will kick down from overdrive into drive, even though w/o cruise vehicle can handle hill fine in overdrive. This will bring rpms from 2000 to 3000. This is merely annoying. Sometimes will kick down past drive and into 3rd gear, bringing rpms to 5000 and cause the vehicle to accelerate rapidly on hill. This seems unsafe, especially in crowded or wet conditions. Have found numerous complaints from other tundra owners online. All say dealer and toyota claim this is "normal." toyota corporate office told me they consider this "normal" and recommend i not use cruise control in hilly areas. Must not have hilly areas where toyota engineers live. *nm
