quieter than the Acura ? @jkburg
Yeah, for real. It's an ILX so it sits really close to the ground (the front scratches every time I pull it out of the driveway) and that suspension is tuned to feel every bump and pebble. So, I wasn't necessarily associating it with road noise as I was only on the freeway for like a mile but it was more about overall sound with the general drive. This really gives you an idea of the size difference. That ILX has a long hood as well.

Awesome thanks for sharing. How was the wind noise coming from the top and roof rails?

To be honest I really didn’t notice, which probably is a good thing. Just trying to stay on the road with a perma grin on my face. The Bronco had like an auto pilot and kept wanting to veer off into a field and go through puddles and over rocks for some reason. 🤥

Congrats on your extreme makeover! :)

You look like an entirely different type of guy with the vehicle on your left versus your current ride on the right.
I will assume some kind of positive compliment in that post.

OP - Thanks for posting!

How was the steering feel? Did it have a lot of play like a pick up truck? Or did it have somewhat tight-ish steering like an suv/sedan?
