No kidding, I'm surprised that it is as quiet as it actually is.
Zero noise complaints from me.
chuckle.....your right in that Ford, in my opinion did an exceptional job putting the new Broncos together far better than i expected. However, quiet is nice as it allows one to hear things like the drive shaft ujoint hum when they wear. As they get worse the hum gets loader untill one day it stops and so do you. Cant hear them with lots of extraneous noise so i like quiet.

With these driveshafts not having u joints I'm not even sure they will make noise before failure, if anything it would be vibration and slack in drivetrain take up.
I hear all the pertinent things, injectors, turbo, exhaust, tire wine, transmission noise if I listen closely enough.

Is it really a 60 year anniversary when it was out of production for 24+ years?
This is the 25th anniversary of the movie The Replacements. Do you disagree?

I agree. The noise keeps you from from hearing the subtle indications of a pending issue.
Like being in the football stadium while your girlfriend yammers on.

A "civilized" 5.0 V8, paired with the 10spd auto or optional Tremec manual, would be worthy of 60th anniversary fireworks.
Buy an F150 XL with the 5.0, single cab, and short bed. Cap on the bed. Change the badging.

Oh, wait, did I just reveal Ford's product planning?

My drive shaft went out on my 2020 Mustang GT. It was a weird vibration I couldn't nail down. Kinda wandered around the car. Eventually I narrowed it down to the drive shaft by driving with my hand touching parts of the floor.

Didn't go boom. I'm almost positive they have the same style ends.

and it will get loader and loader untill it flies apart leaving you stranded. Can cause lots of other damage as well. Quiet is nice on occasion in order to get to know what is normal and whats not. However, i like rag tops I'm not saying this cause I don't like them but they are noisy and you need to get used to your vehicle topless so you know whats going on if you have a rag top.

It was more of a vibration than noise. In fact I don't remember any noise at all. Vibration between 35 and 45 mph.

Now, granted, I'm a huge car guy. Always have been. Taught autocross, competed in SCCA and local clubs, did a little drag racing, had some cool cars (this is my first off road right but I've had a BMW M Roadster that I used to track every weekend, a 2014 and 2020 Mustang GT, a 68 Mustang, a 68 Camaro, a CTS-V... you get the point). I tend to pay attention to things like that more than others
