My commute is almost 160 miles, 40 miles of back roads and 120 miles of highway, easy just set up speed control at 72mph and relax with my music.

wow that is a heck of a lot of driving. I'll trade worse gas mileage for not having that commute every day. I did that for two weeks, never want to again.

I found doing my foot wells and under the seats really made a huge differance as well.

The rear wheelwells put out a huge amount of noise and I had to do them,the side panels,then back of the interior panels,and the rear floor as well.

Overall added weight was around 70lbs in deadening.Did it eliminate all the noise....god I wish.
