Sorry, I thought it was clear. Because in order to avoid the GG tax, GM used the AFM feature to get EPA ratings. If that is the case you can't let the customer choose to deactivate it.

Now if GM had a level of FE that enabled great FE and wanted to just add a customer selectable feature..................very possible.
