Interesting point you bring up.

I'm 70+% deaf in my right ear and 40+% deaf in my left ear.
Driving a 30y.o. or older vehicle I would want the opposite!

I want to 'hear' as much as I can what the rig is doing.
I can feel what the rig is doing; I just don't want to isolate what little hearing noise I can pick up.

On a rig less than 20y.o.; a sound-proof cab is fine by me!
