No, the engine sounded quiet, but the transmission was straight trash. After two synchro replacements in 2 years, Ford gave me a new one. I traded the thing in before the new trans had a chance to start grinding. I would take an S550 of an S197 any day. My 08 would fall flat on its face once I was past the torque peak. The 18 pulls from 2k to 8k.IDK - overall I think I liked the S197 better. At least the engine didn't have all the funky noises this one does lol.
