I agree that AFM/DOD is here to stay on larger displacement engines, and I think it will get better over time. However, I think GM will probably introduce some 5.0-5.7 L engines that don't have AFM/DOD at some point. If the power is there, a lot of people will opt for those instead of the larger displacement versions just to get away from AFM/DOD. Just my opinion.
