re: Ford to start selling vehicles without some chips

So Ford is apologizing for saving their buyers half a tank of gas by removing a feature whose sole purpose is to frick up your starter?

I think it's worse than that. Say what you want, but the engine/car shakes on start up. Someone mentioned a delay in power steering. What all systems are "jolted" or "shook" just a little bit every time the starter/motor/alternator/water pump are spun up?

Such a stupid hack for minimal fuel savings.
