Whatta scolding, GuardDad! Nevertheless, you are correct. I put some dynamat in the hatch this afternoon, and it seems to make a substantial difference. Only drove it once so far though, during rush hour and with my daughter playing the stereo.

I attach a photo taken with my cell phone, facing toward the rear of the car. One box of dynamat from Bestbuy for 70 bucks covered the whole hatch area (12 sq. ft.). Weighs less than 10 pounds. I didn't have to remove all the interior molding, clips and body panels - just took out the spare tire and slid out the big styrofoam blocks. Was a 4 hour job though, and I am exhausted.
