I kind of agree......I like it off, but if you were going to put the feature in at least give it some power and adjustable sound, otherwise why bother?

Sounds like an old Econoline with the very common exhaust leak. Would have preferred it sounded like the Coyote, so for me OFF is the best feature.
I think there is a method for loading custom sounds for propulsion mode. I have not looked into this because I am fine the way it is. ;-)

Ford should really consider having some fun and create some options to mimic classic engine sounds. 1967 Ford Mustang? How about a GT40?

I turned it on once. I was surprised to find it subtle enough not to be offensive nor great. Just ok.

I eventually, after a couple of weeks I think, turned it back off and haven't felt the urge since.

I think I'd be far more likely to use the option if it was "tunable" and had a volume control as well. Or put another way, I bet there is a fake engine noise that I might enjoy at times. But my GTPE doesn't have it.
I actually prefer the whine of cooking inverters when you get into it. That is the sound of the future. The propulsion sound is like AI telling me a reality that doesn’t exist.

I want my car to sound like the speeder bikes from Return of the Jedi. If Ford did that for me I'd keep this car forever.
