Good luck. These things are all a side effect of the government mandates on fuel economy. It will only get worse. If you are going to avoid these features you'll be driving cars from the early 2000's forever.Ford says their entire 2018 model line up will now have the start/stop feature.
I will NEVER own anything with this crap on it!
All true. I often wonder how long modern cars will last. I currently have vehicles from 2007, 2009, and 2011. Guess which one I'm more worried about for longevity purposes.Commifornia and New York City and some more of the East coast is going to mandate this in the next few years. They are wanting to do it to the Diesel delivery trucks, ambulances, fire trucks, Ect.
Soap box Alert. !!!!! here is your chance to bail
But the EPA has infiltrated Car/truck/engine companies and anyone who has bought a 2015 or newer is in for a huge shock when the vehicle is 3-5 years old. You will be trading them in and your going to be in a constant cycle of a vehicle only economical for about 2-3 years of it's life. The technology that has been forced on the manufactures and therefore on you the consumer is not stable or proven. Dealing with the sensors alone will cost you about $800-$1500 everytime one breaks down. Plus the downtime and the fact that new vehicles are prohibited from having a limp home and will put you out of commission without warning will lead to a customer who just has to eat "poop" and smile and drive the new vehicle.
