Seriously. Gasoline cars are pretty quiet nowadays, especially at low speeds. I was walking in my housing complex a few weeks ago, and heard some tire-on-road noise behind me, so I stepped out of the street without looking, figuring it was one of the hybrids that 'live' here in electric mode.
It wasn't. It was a Honda Pilot. I was really surprised at that. Didn't hear the engine at all.
(But I DID hear more than enough noise to warn me that a car was approaching.)
The thing that really annoys me about this is the "no one should be able to change it" attitude. I agree - if I get an EV in the future, this'll be the first thing to get modded.
