Lean burn is a dirty secret but yes its there, its just not considered a feature or something to tout apparently, I always see it mentioned in passing

Every time I see lean burn mentioned but rarely emphasized. The fact is any engine can run lean under certain engine loads safely and most cars sold in foreign countries by the big 3 have lean burn when they can get away with it, but they don't say much about it either.
And I know GM has been doing lean burn since OBDII came out in foreign cars and trucks.
