I'm glad I used the Lizard skin, I think it makes for a quieter ride & seems to keep the heat out better also. I also used some "Damplafier Pro" on the floor over the Lizzard skin. (similar to Dynamat) just for good measure. No real measurements done to compare tho, just my thoughts.

What a great looking truck. Do you know the exact color name? Is it a stock mfg color from some year?
Thanks Dan, I custom built a aluminum fuel tank, then mounted it behind the rear end & just used the stock filler neck, rubber gasket & cap that I removed from the cab & mounted it in the fender. The color has no name, but I found it in the paint chip book for Dupont "single stage". Someone once told me the color looked like "Southwetsern Bell" green.
