It would be nice to have an option in the DIC to toggle afm mode on or off.

+1 million.

The only reason I got a programmer was to disable the AFM.

I hear ya. Im debating on getting mine turned off.

Do it! I have noticed exactly ZERO difference in gas mileage since turning mine off a few months ago.

AFM in it's current form makes sense for lighter, more aerodynamic V8 cars. But these 5000+ lb bricks simply cannot take advantage of it. Why didn't GM develop a 8/6 AFM system for the trucks? I could see that working better.


you're 100% right!
