Agreed. I'm not into bloated sized anything on the road, and by nature, I'm opposed to the tech they throw into vehicles for better FE/emissions. At the risk of starting debates, I don't see the point of shutting off cylinders during SS driving or shutting off vehicles at stops when neither has been reliable for long-term engine life. What's the gain if your engine needs replacing around 100k miles?
