I had a discussion with Mike about some stuff prior to him getting it.

Personally, I wish it wasnt there or a person could choose to turn it off, but GM doesnt ask my opinion.

A guy could have it "tuned", but just have it turned off. It will void the powertrain warranty however as any time I go inside, I have to get all the programming data out of them and cross it to the GM system to verify its legit.

If a guy is going from an older truck to one with it, he will notice it for sure, but on the new ones it actually happens so seamlessly that even I have to pay attention most times to notice it.

mikes a slacker

Dave, dont sweat the AFM.
I work on them for a living, and my wife had one. My sister has one.
I can nit pick any of them, because I see them at their worst. But in reality, the failures I see on AFM is nowhere near as common as other stuff.

Anything mechanical can break at any time, which guys like us are aware of, but it wouldnt keep me from owning one.

Thanks Ed.

What year 'Burban do you have?

99 last year for the 350

Town and country touring. It’s comfortable for her and the kids.
I just don’t like replacing brakes, rotors, calipers, wheel bearings etc. every 25K.
Not to mention the dealer service it has required.

I have an 03 with 146 more cubic inches.
Didn’t need or want that engine, just stumbled upon a good deal.

They carried the 350 and that body style into 2000 or 2001? In the 1 ton trucks, but yes, last year for the utilities.

That 8.1 was a good engine. Had one in an 02 GMC truck. It liked gasoline.
