Cruise control issue

Question...I have the cruise set at 76 accelerate with pedel to pass a Chevy or Dodge (sorry could not resist) take my foot off the pedel, I have not touched the cruise settings, truck deaccelerates below the set cruise speed (76) and turbo kicks in to get truck back up to set speed. Very odd.

That is odd as when I do that (BTW - I always wave my mirrors at them just to really tick them off ) it decelerates slowly to my set speed which is usually 72-73.

Don't know if this would help but TSB 11-04-21 fixed the same issue on my truck. I would check to see if it has been applied.
My cruise would recover slowly if I used the throttle to pass and then let the cruise restore back to my set speed. Before the TSB, it would always coast down past the set speed then slowly move back to set speed. Since TSB, no issues. Behaves just as it should!
