Moving from Florida To North Carolina Suggestions Please!
Like the title says were moving in February 2016. I'm Looking at using some sort of sound deadening / undercoating in the wheel wells and in the trunk, because the factory coat is chipping off. does anyone have a suggestion of what to use, that will last a long time and help with road noise? Bedliner? Is there any other suggestions for things/mods I should do to the yaris before the move?

Spray cans of black undercoating are cheap. "Read and follow its directions," e.g., pressure wash, let dry for days, park outdoors on a tarp, remove the wheels, mask, and have at it! Let cure outdoors; can be stinky.

I never thought the Yaris was a particularly noisy car, how about just investing in a $2 pair of ear plugs.

You can put a sound deadening/soundproofing mat on the inside of the liner. Just clean the surface well so that the mat will adhere well.

It's pretty damn noisy compared to many other cars I've had. But +1 on the ear plugs. You still hear the surrounding sounds, but the edge of the noise is taken off. When I drove from East Texas to upstate New York in my Scirocco, I very much wished for some right around the Kentucky state line.
