Like some of the others, AFM kicking in and out at 20 mph makes no sense at all. I believe GM could have gotten by EPA by tying in the AFM only at crusing speeds, 55 and up. Ideally, although it probably wouldn't fly, I'd love to only have it engage when the cruise control is used. I also don't understand GM's thinking of "sport/competition" mode. It's hard to imagine any competition when you're running on 4 cylinders part of the time. Deactivating AFM in these modes IMO just makes sense. The use of the paddle shifting is ok for awhile and that gets old too. My wife has no problem letting me know that "clicking" of the paddle shift gets irritating too.
I think eventually something will be done, until then I guess I just paddle away!
