1. How much in sq ft will I need to sound deaden the entire floor, all the panels and doors of my 2014 Chevy Tahoe?

2. Should I deaden the entire thing in the first place?

These are two decent deadeners for the price

deaden the floor and doors. Use 1/2 plywood for the roof if you actually have a loud setup. If you are under 150 db then yeah deadener works fine.

36 sqft for all 4 doors, I presume? I'm about to deaden the doors on my '02 Tahoe.

Keep in mind your mostly just adding weight.So less layers of the thicker sheets = more layers of thinner sheets in weight.I learned that I thought I saving money by buying cheaper/thinner damping but I had to use more and that was double the work.Thin dampener and thin house paint for me never again.

Don't buy cheap *****. The results don't come with the cost.

Buy quality once and do it right the first time. Re-doing deadner is a pain in the ***.
