I have it and I like it. The stop /start is not annoying like on other vehicles that start by the starter. It also works to smooth out shifts. A friend of mine is a mechanic at my dealer that got trained on the system. He works at one of the biggest dealers in Montreal and has not had any in with issues.
The stop/start does save a noticeable amount of fuel in city driving.
Thanks! And apparently the stop/start can be bypassed easily, have you looked into it?

It's a button where the shifter and 4wd buttons are.

I had one and I liked it especially when towing and between shifts.
It would help get the truck rolling and it smooths out the transmission shifts.
Truck was pretty quick with the 3.92 gears.

I know exactly what it is which is why I didn't want it. My Silverado is almost 20 years old and did just fine without it. It adds complexity and possible future expenses with no significant benefit from what I can see.
How many fingers am I holding up...?

Only bad thing about the etorque is the auto start stop. Besides that I think you’ll be happy.

Seems like a couple of positive reviews in the previous posts. Sounds like the price was right. The benefits featured in their marketing are all good. Looks like the stop/start may be seamless but at least you can turn it off if you want?
  • Improved fuel economy
  • More towing capability
  • Better hauling ability
  • Enhanced drivability

You can turn in off.

You can turn in off.
Why would you though. Sitting at a light not pissing away fuel for no reason. Let off the brake and the truck is rolling by the time you step on the gas. Also saving fuel by not having to start from a dead stop. 🤷
