Restarts in modern engines don't use so much gas. Hybrids save by cycling the gasoline engine on-and-off. (I wonder about the reliability of high-mileage hybrids a few more years down the road.) Still, I only shut-down when it's abundantly clear that I'm not going anywhere for several minutes. No way I'd turn off the car at traffic lights and such. There are many other fuel-saving measures that will save more in the long run. I frequently see folks around here sitting in a parking lot, engine idling, as they talk on the phone. That's foolishly wasteful. dcb |
