I find that I dislike earplugs, even if they are better for me...

1. I like to keep my eyes on the road and shift by ear. Depending on wind conditions and speed, I lose the engine sound with earplugs in (and then all I hear is wind anyways), meaning I have to check the tach a lot more often, taking away from my focus on the road.

2. Years of playing drums in a band hasn't left me with the best hearing anyways

3. I have been driving with the windows down my entire life

4 . I have bad hearing by genetic disposition.

So, in summary, I'm already deaf, and it doesn't matter for meeeee. Granted, I've only tried earplugs once, so maybe I'll do it again and then see how it goes...
