Go to big box hardware/carpet store (i used home depot)
Go to carpeting-ish isle (somewhere in that area)
Find carpet insulation or I think they call it carpet pads (its in big rolls, like the carpet they stock there, its the stuff you put under home installed carpet)
Go with the thickest packed kind (just push on each and see which is most dense, at my home depot, the blue colored kind was the most dense)
Get a few feet by a few feet cut for you
20 bucks later you have cuttable, formable, cheap but very effective insulation
and thats coming from a guy who deals with the rattles of a diesel
ALSO
Home depot carries stuff called QUICK ROOF, its roofing heat insulation, it has its own peelable sticky side (peel away coating, it sticks to anything). This stuff is the poor man's Dynamat.
Stick quick roof to floor pad, you have the ultimate insulation, for less than $40 for your whole cab
P.s., if you are thinking twice about using home carpet padding in a truck, I just pulled the factory carpet out of my truck, guess what I found, the same stuff installed from factory. Ever look under the dash against firewall? Carpet padding, or as the car world calls it, jute. Pretty much ground up foam attached to a sheet with glues
