https://www.reddit.com/r/AskMechanics/s/r8slvBu1un I have not seen any start stop failures cause any damage to a starter or battery. Lots of folks ask me to install a bypass to shut off the system.

How about this from a mechanic? https://www.reddit.com/r/AskMechanics/s/Yspd6qnkrU If you drive in stop and go traffic, it definitely saves gas. The starter wear is not an issue. First, it's not the same starter as in a regular engine. Second, restarts on a warm engine represent a fraction of the wear compared to a cold start. So early wear is a non-issue. Premature engine wear is also not an issue because these engines have oil retaining bearings, so restart lube isn't an issue. What the carmakers are discovering is that, even though AGM batteries are designed to handle many more discharge/charge cycles than a flooded battery, they're not lasting as long as projected. They're twice the price of a flooded battery, so you should factor that into to your projected gas cost saving. Your worries about starters is unfounded. Idiot.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that sees it.

BS. Most people are leaving CA, NY, NJ primarily due to cost, primarily housing and taxes. This has been repeated in multiple polls and studies in recent years. Another reason is the change in work climate, primarily WFH. You might argue that liberal policies cause high taxes, fine. High housing cost is a function of supply and demand. liberal policies cause low supply? Maybe, there is also a high demand because people have for a long time wanted to live in these states.

We've donated a bunch but still have some. But I've literally sat on the couch, wanted to watch a movie, and spent $5 to stream the movie instead of getting up and finding the disc, putting it in, switching inputs, finding the other remote, going through the menu, etc.

The reason NY, NJ, MA and CA are the leading vote getters is because they are liberal.

As was already stated the battery and starter are built for the extra load. And yes batteries can still harm the environment if not disposed of correctly, which goes for all cars, not just the ones you don't like.

Netanyahu said he's gonna take over the rest of Gaza. This is Trump's directive, finish the job. It's gonna get even worse. We may see Mar-A-Gaza after all.

Car batteries for starters don't have lithium, but cool post bro.

bro is so desperate for a win also title of the thread: Democrats lead Republicans in party preference per new Gallup Poll You didn't dispute that.

LIBRULS!@#$%

BIDEN! Fun fact: 2/3 of Corporations are incorporated in DE

But no Epstein files. Nice to see Republicans care more about taking away votes from brown and black people than justice for child rape victims.

I was in RI 2 weeks ago and really enjoyed Providence so I spared it, went with Ohio instead.

I voted for Alaska, Indiana and Utah. Yes Alaska and Utah are beautiful but Alaska too cold and desolate and Utah is filled with LDS.

Good criteria. I also included data like GDP, livability and implied value to the rest of the states, whether it's natural resources, recreation, etc.

Was just gonna say this. Great idea posty but unfortunately ruined by politics.

This market is drunk but I'm not complaining.

As someone who enjoys eating tacos from illegal taco stands, I find this very offensive. Some of the best tacos I ever had.

Everyone knows how early gang bangers like to hit the home depot to murder and rape Americans.

Yeah, when Stephen Miller ordered 3k deportations per day, regular people knew that there were more than a million MS-13 members easily deportable. You would have to be delusional to think that they're not deporting or targeting anyone else.

Maga: I saw a video of masked thugs throwing taco vendors to the street, what's going on? DHS: Don't worry about it, just MS-13 gang bangers. Maga: OK thank you. MURECA! FOCK YEAH!

Check out all these violent MS-13 murderers and rapists selling tacos at Home Depot. We can all sleep more soundly knowing this criminal syndicate has been eradicated. Thank you Father Trump for protecting us.

Sounds terrible. I drive a 10 year old vehicle. It's pretty good.
