Should there be an engine cover?

[Tbolt]

I didn't like the way the engine sounded in the videos so was going to get a cover to mute it somewhat, but I can't hear the engine at all in my Lariat Mav, so now I am not going to bother. Glad I didn't already order it. I did put a cover on the touchscreen and the stainless steel letters on the tailgate, just have the dampener left to put on, but this was the part I hadn't ordered yet, lol

Well, thanks to all who answered the original question.
So the answer is NO, there isn't supposed to be a cover installed, but there are mounts for one if you wish to add one.

Bronco Sport engine cover supposedly fits right on it. I saw one at our local dealer recently. An employee of the dealer owned it and said he had the parts department get it for him and it bolted right on. Whether it was that easy or not I couldn’t say.

For those who favor putting an engine cover on this, tell us what your rationale is. I'm sure part of it was cost savings, but I'd rather believe that the Ford engineers really do know what they're doing. Why does everyone want want to lift, lower, and otherwise modify stock vehicles? You think you know better than the original engineers?

The cover is called the hood.
