The ceiling, probably. Over 50% of the heat is supposed to escape
through the roof. But your two stories of walls are a lot of area.
Unless you don't use the second floor in the winter, I'd still start
with the roof.

Ok, heres my question. If you had to make a choice on which to insulate
first would it be the walls or the ceiling?
My garage has two stories with the 2nd floor being a wood shop and parts
storage. Currently there is no wall coverings or insulation. I've got
a
150,000 btu furnace in the lower level and it will heat it up to 65
easily as
long as the outside temp isn't below 20 or so. When the temp drops
below
that the furnace works hard. Oh yea, the garage is 24x41.
