Custom External Sounds

[shadyog]

While the Dodge Charger EV fell flat in the execution, I think it's a good idea in concept. I would love to have the option to upload my own external audio files for the external engine noise. For those of us that want a "engine sound" let us upload our own sounds. It would be the modern day "garage tinkering/muffler mod". Would also allow you to make your scout "YOUR OWN".

Perhaps I'll make my engine sound be something that sounds like a Tractor mixed with a starship.... Next guy might just upload a raw V-8 sound.. Next guy a diesel sound. It's not a big ask really but would go a long way.

And of course for those that don't want it all, can just turn it off.

I was afraid of that. That really “rubs me the wrong way”. (Insert expletives as desired)

For some reason whenever I get a new car, the first time I hit the really bumpy railroad tracks near my house that external speaker stops working. One of these days I'll remember to schedule the service.

4 points for grey-hair.

Its 200 points if they are on a bike on the road when there is a bike lane and a sidewalk.

Regular bike or E-bike?

Reading my son's Ranger Rick magazine which has a section on animal sounds that included the Lyrebird which sounds similar to a car alarm.

I hate the idea of an external sound! I get woken up every morning by my neighbors toyota hybird and the stupid high pitched sound it makes every morning. I understand that some people may want it to sound like an older engine, but give us the ability to turn it off please. I will be using mine in the mountains all the time and the LAST thing I want is an engine sound... I'm looking forward to enjoying the aspen leaves and the mountain views without an engine.... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, do not make a mandatory engine sound!

Make it sound like a DT466. Problem solved. (I believe federal regs require some type of sound at low speed for safety.)
