EPA to ban the Start/Stop Feature

[goin2drt]

Legit one of the things I looked at before buying. I would not buy a vehicle with it.

I was the same way. If I turned it off and the car did not remember that and I had to disable each time getting in I did not buy the car.

It is the most stupid, beuacratic POS system ever invented and it did NOTHING for the environment.

there is one non-earth upside to the start/stop issue
the starter's are way way more robust than in the good old days by a long shot .
myself I turn it off at the 1st stop light & that action is almost automatic now in my brain

It's annoying, unsafe, and causes extra wear and tear.

I've owned multiple vehicles with auto start/stop, never found it annoying. But to each their own.

I don't buy that it's unsafe or causes extra wear and tear. Idling is terrible for your engine and the environment.
