Lee Zeldin ( EPA Administrator) has this and other such "feel good about saving the planet" nonsense in his sights. Perhaps my source was wishful thinking ( Liberty Daily 7/30). It sounds like the credits/incentives are going away the question is when.
The only thing i like about the auto start stop is that my 2017 F-150 and the Maverick have the AGM battery. The original one on my F-150 IS STILL GOING STRONG. i have never had a bat. with such longevity. So far as the ending of this auto manufactures' credit incentive (and others).
Auto s.s...
My first oil change was at 1000 miles. I put in a magnetic drain plug in at the same time. Nothing much was seen on the plug in other changes since then.
I hate the auto shut off and the bad things associated with its use outweigh the good. My mechanic hates it too.
Sounds like more "green" feel good malarky.
This is a tragedy, but it could have been worse. When you have a car accident, everyone walking away unscathed is the thing to focus on- you are blessed. That color is beautiful, i have never seen it on the road.
