Since they can't guarantee enough chips to put the feature on ALL of them, they are taking the stance of putting it on NONE of them.

I would personally be happy to ORDER a truck if I were able to have the features included. But, since GM won't let anyone have AFM/DFM and that significantly increases the overall cost of ownership of the truck as a result (due to much worse MPG), I won't be buying a truck or SUV from them in the coming year to replace my aging Silverado.
That's you. And that's fine.
I happen to know many people on here have spent money on a RANGE AFM disable module for their cars and have gotten 0% worse economy with the AFM being gone.
