Guy at work bought a new Ford Escape and was describing the stop/start feature it has. Thought he was talking about a hybrid but this isn't one. The engine evidently shuts off when you are stopped with your foot on the brake, like at a traffic light, and then restarts when you remove your foot. I admit not being savvy about modern engines, but it would seem that putting an acceleration load on low or no oil pressure at startup would be hard on rod and crank bearings. Couldn't find much on the internet, do these cars have some way of keeping oil pressure up like a preoiler pump?
