I wouldn't be locking it even if there was a way. It changes to stop it labouring in top gear which isn't good for the gearbox your better off to override it manually as you get to the bottom of the
hill. Toyota cruise control is the worst cruise Ive ever had on 3 Prado's. It gets to the bottom of the
hill then starts to climb then goes "" oh bleep were climbing a
hill, were only doing 100 we were doing 110"" bang down goes the throttle, kicks back a gear most of the time two, revs the bleep ter out of it, then goes over the set speed and holds the gear a few seconds, then settles down back to the set speed until the next slight rise again, sound familiar ?? bleep tiest cruise ever, all prados were the same, its a Toyota thing. Our commodore and statesman we had were spot on the dot with what ever we set it at even the steepest of hills but did it gradually. I will use it on the flats in the prado but even going from here at
home Penrith to Central Coast on the F3 I hardly use it as mentioned above my fuel economy goes out the window. And ""BTY"" means ""by the way"".............cheers
