I agree completely. I think a lot of people don't realize that this is a pretty common thing in high performance vehicles, Japanese, Euro, and domestic. It's also been around for quite a few years, it's not like Ford just dreamed this up.

I've never owned a vehicle that did this so I have no frame of reference. I would like to know the reason behind it because if your hi-po vehicle has a sweet sound wouldn't you want to hear that and not some fake sound? I'm making a mountain out of mole hill here but it just doesn't make any sense to me. Honestly, it's kind of cheesy, and that's just my opinion.

My Subaru STI had a 2 foot plastic tube coming off the intake pipe, after filter, that goes through the firewall to pump turbo whistles into the cabin under the glove box. It was quite annoying without the radio up. I removed the tube and an empty bottle of CLP fit in the hole perfectly with a little RTV.

Sound enhancement doesn’t necessarily mean fake sound. They simply do this to make it possible to hear the engine in vehicles that have more and more soundproofing. Are they sometimes more selective about which part(s) of the sound they enhanced? Yes, but it’s not always bad. There’s always a way to turn it off or remove a small part if one doesn’t like it. Not a huge deal.

the opening in the video is great showing off the blown weak *** ko2. The mall crawler off road tire haha

Nothing wrong with KO2’s.

Oh, and regarding your screen name, I think that would be more appropriate for say a Cabela's, Bass Pro or some hunting/guns (I'm all for hunting and owning guns btw) forum rather than a Ford Raptor Forum but I digress. Also seems pretty weak that you chose the most docile animal in the forest to kill LOL. I can go on for days if you want but I would rather spend my time on useful more productive things than this.

Me neither. I fully expected to hate it. But it never bothered me and I don't notice it. Quit worrying. If you hate it, you can turn it off.

What Axel R said, the companies are just trying to maximize the engine sound in a car/truck that has pretty good sound proofing, make it more fun and satisfying for the enthusiast driver.

Most people use the same screen name in more than one place. And criticizing someone's screen name? Really? If it's offensive, maybe, but otherwise all you're doing is making yourself look petty. And that's not a good look. Just sayin'

My screen name on the 5th Gen Ram forum is Badasstripleturbogiantdik. I had shopped those before I got my Raptor. I wanted a low profile name.
