This is honestly the first time that I’ve ever heard somebody has ever admitted they don’t like the sound of a healthy v8.

Sure BUD, whatever you say.As much as I appreciate an engine's capabilities, I actually want the opposite: quieter. I have no need to drive something that makes people notice by the sound of my proximity - I'm not an asshat riding a Harley and I'm certainly not needing to compensate for anything physically or emotionally that makes me want to go 'loud'.
Nah, f' that sh*t. I want it quieter. When I go out into the mountains, I want to get out there but I prefer to hear less 'car' and more of the world/environment I'm in.
Y'all with your big sounding motors are living in the past. Engine sound is not a direct correlation to capability - and the modern, small engines are not only producing better power AND torque at a higher rate of efficiency, they're also lighter. Hell - Koenigsegg developed a 2L twin turbo 3-cylinder engine that produces 600HP and 443 lb-ft torque without cams.
The future is smaller, more efficient engines - coupled with electric.
Then, after that, the future is ditching all that electric sh*t and going fuel cell which is even more efficient, better for the environment AND we already have an infrastructure in place to allow for rapid re-fueling.
Honestly it's nigh time some people stop holding on to older values and move forward, otherwise your flotsom of degraded ways will get swept up in the current.
I think you meant "Former Lunch Engineer for Ford."Yes and no - the chance of a Turbo V6 in the bronco is extremely low.
as many have mentioned it’s being built on the ranger platform in the same plant - they want to have as little complexity as possible. The ranger isn’t getting a turbo V6, so the bronco won’t either

I like the sound of a V8 but for me personally I love the sound of a turbo blow off valve even more.This is honestly the first time that I’ve ever heard somebody has ever admitted they don’t like the sound of a healthy v8.
My Jeep just sounds like.... nothing lol. I don’t really care though honestly. Never been a big deal to me
I've not posted much but have been enjoying the forum and the pizza for some time.
That being said; Where do these people come from?!
That's only a rumor until official said by fordAlso the “raptor bronco” has a name and has for a while. It’s Warthog.
Enough with this “raptor” shit
Not gonna lie I had to go watch some C7.R onboard after that so I could hear what a racecar should sound like before I go off to sleep. ?
