[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 317509, member: 412"] Fly-by-wire gas pedal restarts it automatically. Prius was one of the 1st to introduce this. The electric motor gets you going and about 1/2 way across an intersection you can feel the gas motor start and add power as well. My biggest concern regarding start/stop would be all of the turbo options Ford has. Those turbos have to have lubrication to keep them cool. Can't be having a warm engine shutting down lubrication to a spinning turbo because you got to a stop sign. Starving turbo main-bearings at every stop sign is a recipe for Kersplosion. [/QUOTE]
