All turbo 2017 F150's to get start-stop standard, including Raptor

Yeah I hear you won't be able to hear the engine anyway...

 

[MatMan]

You can neither hear it nor feel it. Imagine being paralyzed and deaf, except you can hear your passenger nagging about "Did it shut off? we better turnaround in case it shuts off" similar experience, haha JK

Start stop is the new cylinder deactivation!

I also noticed how the author mistakenly used the SVT reference in the first paragraph

WTF is Ford selling Golf Carts or Raptors? I'll take mine with a 6.2

How many of us actually bought this truck for gas mileage?? "This technology will "Save 5% in fuel economy." Trust me if the MSRP window sticker saying I'll spend an average of 8 grand more than the standard automobile owner on fuel annually didn't scare me off, then I don't give a flying **** about saving money on gas. 93 octane ******* at 12mpg.

Hi. Nancy checking in. I still think it's stupid.....

Can anyone confirm that you can permanently turn this off through a tune in the current f-150? Chevy has this on malibus (company fleet cars) and you can not disable the start stop in any form or fashion

I absolutely hate this tech, the amount of gas saved does nothing for me. They should make it a no-cost option

It can be disabled through a tune, 5 Star's and Livernois at least.

Got a 2015+ F150 2.7L V6 Ecoboost? - 5 Star Tuning



This might help answer some of the concerns.

So to be sure, we'll all just drive above 10,000 feet in sport and 4x4 mode with door open and foot off the brake.

Brakes are for losers anyways.
