Regarding the SUV/Z noise thing, remember in an SUV, your much higher up off the ground. In the Z, your *** is less than 6" off the ground.

Yup. I figure that's why my pickup had much more wind noise, but the Z has much more road/tire noise.

You mean how you can hear all sorts of rocks and such hitting the inside of the rear wheel well? That's because the rear wheel well area has almost no sound deadening on it, inside or outside. Adding more sound deadning to the rear wheel well can really drop a lot of noise out of the Z's interior.
