I just got my windshield replaced. I'm wondering if I'm getting more wind noise than is normal or if I'm just over sensitive because of the new windshield. With the radio off, wind noise becomes noticeable at between 30-35 MPH. At this speed, and with the radio off, the wind noise is no more annoying than the creaks/rattles of my folded back seats, headrests shaking, stuff in cargo area, etc. At 40-45 MPH, still with radio off, the wind noise is definitely there, but still easy to talk over. Still at 40-45 MPH, but with radio on at normal volume, you have to actively listen for the wind noise. The noise doesn't increase much from 45ish to 70ish (at least not relative to road noise, etc.). It seems that, at 70-75ish you can hear the noise without trying even if the radio is on at a low volume or on talk radio (but with my preferred louder, but not blasting, volume level, you have to listen closely to hear wind noise).
Since I'm usually listening to the radio and I'm usually not thinking about/listening for wind noise, I don't know if my wind noise levels are normal or not. Thanks in advance for any thoughts on whether I'm getting too much wind noise?
