Default High Idle Switch

I saw a cool video on Youtube where a guy had a high idle switch using the cruise control.
Has anyone seen or done this? If so, can you share how to hook it up? This would be useful for me on cold days

I know the Dodges have it, as long as it is enabled. I think it is a simple as pushing and holding cruise, then accel or decel for RPM.

It depends what year model you have. You can't do it on some stock trucks such as my 2001, but my dad's company has nothing but duramax's for hauling thier equipment around and some of their newer model trucks have an idle switch on it.
