    Any one using one of these on their Gen III or newer car? Any problems?

    It runs off the OBDII diagnostic port. Which is pretty much standardized across all modern cars sold in the USDM.
    So yes, it will work. ;)

    I had heard somewhere that the engine shutting off and restarting during the normal course of a trip will cause errors in the calculations for State Farm. Glad to hear that is not the case.

    Perhaps you should be addressing these concerns to State Farm?

    I'm not sure exactly what parameters the InDrive module tracks, so maybe SF can clarify whether a hybrid cars' start/stop technology will cause any problems.
