    Default AFM and DOD

    Are these different names for the same thing? These are names for the 8-4 cylinder cruise mode I assume?
    Displacement on Demand and Automatic Fuel Management, correct?

    Active Fuel Management (formerly known as Displacement on Demand) is a trademarked name for the automobile variable displacement technology from General Motors.

    Its not too annoying. I went with a quieter exhaust so the drone is almost unnoticeable. Almost.

    Yeah I'm going to keep it also, love the gas mileage I can get. On the other hand does anyone know the difference between AFM and no AFM? It would be nice to not have it.
