[QUOTE="jaz13, post: 1278289, member: 24095"] Stop/start only exists to game the EPA's fuel consumption test. 1/3 of the city simulation is at idle. Auto companies boost their ratings by shutting off the engine during the idle portion. And as for fuel consumption, I blow any savings out the tailpipe by many multiples using the remote start in the winter. But the start/stop makes me feel less guilty about warming up my truck on cold mornings. The only time I mind the stop/start is on hot days when it cuts the A/C. The rest of the time it is transparent to me. (if I need a quick getaway, releasing a tad of brake pressure fires up the engine. it also won't turn off if the front wheels are turned.) [/QUOTE]
