What do y'all prefer for rubber floor mats? I just got some weatherech mats in that I ordered for my new truck today. They seemed to have the best reviews from what I've read and look to be very well made.
 
I ordered some Husky's for the wee Ranger and they have been very serviceable for me.

I was torn between the Husky's and the WTs. They looked very nice as well.

I've not owned WT's so I can't say how they compare, but if I needed mats, I would buy these again. I've had them a year and a half. Not THAT long, but they seem like a good value.

One thing I'll add is, I had to cut my Husky's to fit. They are made to do that. I don't know if Weathertechs are a more custom fit per model or not.
 
Think mine are husky's and been pleased with them.

A side note my truck had rubber floors already as it was a work truck package which I like for the way i use it normally with usually having dirty feet. I cleaned it up real well one time inside and out and thought it would be a good idea to wipe the floors down with armor oil to clean them up nice, bad idea I about busted my butt couple times getting in and out with those husky mats sliding around on the rubber floors till it wore off. Won't do that again.

My truck has rubber floors as well and I bought it used (and detailed,) so yea, that ArmorAll is slicker than owl snot
 
Husky floor mats are a really good product as well.
 
As with everything else, today's weather tech (ordered for my wife's Jeep and my daughter's Jeep) are not as heavy as those ordered a decade ago (wife's Volvo wagon) but they do fit very well and seem to work well.
 
Ive got WT in both my truck and the wife's Truck explorer. A little expensive, but hold up great!
 
My dad bought a new truck last week, we stopped and put a set of WT in before he got it home!
 
I have to say Weather Tech. If you can get past initial sticker shock, they are very well made, fit like a glove, and are tough as nails. Just the sticker shock thing.
 
Just put WT's in the wife's new CRV...liked them so much I went to order a set for my 93 ZJ Jeep....they don't make them. Well, they do offer "trim to fit" versions.
 
I have WeatherTechs in my Tacoma and love them. My only fault with them is I wish they were made from thicker material. I agree that it is hard to beat them. They have saved my carpet from a 5y/o's juice, a few times.

The rear mat is what sold me. I wanted the whole back area to be covered, even under the seats since 90% of the time I will have them folded up.
 
I guess I'll be the voice of dissent. I tried a set of Weather Tech's in my '15 F150 and they didn't fit at all. They actually would have been a tripping hazard, especially on the passenger side. Maybe the wrong mats got put in the F150 box...

Hopefully that's not the case for me. I got the front mats in last night and the rear should be here today. We'all find out when I go to put them in later

I armor all'd the seat of my atv when cleaning it up for a 4th of July parade when I was a teenager. That was an interesting parade ride trying to keep my rear end on the seat.

I use this stuff on my Weathertech liners called instant detailer by Mcguires, it makes them look nice without being slippery.

Just got mine installed in my '16 F150 and they fit great. The edges are a little raised in a couple places but I suspect that they will lay down and fit like a glove once they get warmed up.
 
I bought Huskies to start with in my old Tacoma and ended up replacing them with weathertech custom fit mats and loved them. When I got my Tundra I got the weathertechs front and rear and also a set for my wife's sequoia. They really are great and seem to hold up well.
 
If no one has mentioned it, weather tech mats rock. I had a set of husky mats, and hated them. Had a set of. Nifty mats once I liked them pretty good. But neitherbeat the WT mats IMO

I have rubber floors in my Expo cruiser. They detailed it when I bought it months ago. Still waiting for the slick to wear down a bit...

Mine finally got better with me removing the mat for a day or two to let a little dirt dirt get under the mat to absorb and rub some of it off
 
Y'all are making me think I need to try another set of WeatherTechs.
