You should care because if it's always on then you'll never know when something else goes wrong.

Just buy the OBD adapter to defeat it and do it right.

If you want to drive a car with a V8 and a constant check engine light, get a Charger.

Curious why you want to disable the AFM...On my 5th gen the AFM was horrible and I couldn't wait to disable it. On this car (21 2SS) I don't even feel it...

Me too. 2016 2SS and I can't tell it's active in any way except the DIC indication. I love seeing 25+ MPG in V4 mode while doing 80 on the highway!
