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

All I'm saying is, the last thing you want is your truck's engine shutting off on a 30% grade when climbing loose rocks in the Colorado mountains. Makes sense, huh? I'm sure in the concrete jungle, it will be wonderful. Not off road.......

We won't have to worry because it'll never start to begin with unless we roll it down a hill.

But in all seriousness, I certainly hope it's easy to keep running. There are a lot of times when off-roading, you just want to keep the motor running. Strange things can happen once the motor is off.

A button to turn it off when needed works for me, then its the best of both worlds. Would prefer a button that does not reset when you turn the engine off though.

Hopefully there is a button or any other mode other than normal will shut off the auto shut off. Its not really a good idea to run a turbo vehicle hard as shit then have it shut off as soon as you come to a stop, need to let the oil and lower ETs circulate through the turbo to get the heat down before you shut it down.

What about sand rail ish mode. And what if you pull up next to a Prius ? It shuts off and they can't hear your fart can! This totally sucks

How many times have you shut down for break (or whatever) got back in and forgot to turn on/disable items? It is funny whenever we go on Raptor runs there is always radio chatter about remembering to do so or forgetting to do so.

Hi, I'm Nancy, and I just don't think it's a good idea at all.

Thank you for listening......

I never shut my truck off until I'm back at camp. That bitch sits at idle for half the time I'm out in the desert

Keep the motor running and a door open.

The new Eco is gonna fire much faster and much more quietly than the wall rattling v8.

So you won't even notice in all likelihood, esp if a custom tune disables it.
