This was a hard choice!
It was a very close race between Journey into Imagination and Horizons. I said Journey into Imagination because I think it has a chance of coming back. I think the backlash against whatever was after Journey and before the current "version" of Journey made Disney very aware of people's love for the ride.
Horizons is gone... I miss that ride, too. Very close 2nd. Probably 1st if I didn't hold out hope we have a chance to revive JII.
I also thought about saying AE only because I've seen what replaced it and don't like it. Though, it makes sense. MK is about kids and AE would freak out 90% of them (and did from my understanding). Stitch makes more sense for the parks demographic.

You know what was great about Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, besides it just being a fun ride, was the cars themselves. Being able to sit in those vehicles that looked like the old cars really made you get into driving like a maniac through the different scenes.

I really liked AE. Kids were in tears on the way out. Brilliant!!!
Possibly a clue to why it closed. I miss the skyway most though. A quiet ride with great views.

I really felt saddened to see that list. I was torn between AE, 20KL, Mr. Toad and Imagination. I just went D|L and had a blast at Toad (please bring it back). I really liked 20KL, AE scared the bejeebers out of me (I don't even go to Stitch anymore) and Journey always made me laugh. I eventually whittled it down and I picked Journey into Imagination.
