I generally don't come on here and crow too much about the E450 past the point that it is a durable workhorse. I'll agree it gets noisy at 4K+ RPM. Your post did get me thinking about the percentage of time it actually operates at 4000 or more RPM. At least in my case maybe a percent or two of the total run time. I don't even know if that is close but it isn't much. At least for me generally it is cruising along at 2500 RPM, and running into the low-mid 3000s under acceleration. For me the 4K RPM+ has come on grades, sometimes sustained, but frequently climbs grades in the 3000s. In general engine noise has not been a concern.
Enjoyed the review just the same.
