how quiet is your truck inside?

You guys built some of them better than others. My '86 C20 Burb still has the original dual exhaust and is quiet as can be going down the road. No wind noise at all unless it's a REALLY windy day. Must not have been built on a Friday or Monday, eh?

My lifted K20 Burb really doesn't have wind noise, but does have a lot of tire noise.

My lifted K30 is really pretty quiet, just some tire noise and some rattles normal for a truck pushing 35 years old.

My little '84 C10 is one noisy SOB. The left vent window has been really noisy for years, just the other day I crammed some sticky-back weatherstripping into it and it made a big difference. But I still hear the exhaust and a ton of road noise.

I haven't driven my K5 in so long that I don't remember how noisy it might be.

My K10 was like a torture chamber before I fixed the exhaust. It leaked in probably 1,000,000 places and you couldnt hold a conversation with anyone or talk on the phone. Since I fixed it, it's better now. Haven't really been driving it since it's not inspected and the battery is toast but I put the tail pipes right before the rear tires. SHould be interesting.

No wind noise from the vent windows or the sliding rear window. The only thing you can really hear now is all the unhealthy ticking and the occasional clunking sound coming from the engine

I can talk on my Kenwood's Blutooth speaker phone at 75mph with 35" Toyo M/Ts...

I find the 79 with the rear sides,and cab roof covered quite a bit quieter
then the 78 without
but two different trucks with two different blocks and mufflers but still would be quieter I'm sure
the 79 also has extra foam strip around the door

and i can talk hands free in both just one is louder
