Floor Mats
 
After a little adventure this weekend my gray floor mats are now a shade of mud. I found some rubber mats on AB but I dont know if they are any good, does anyone have these mats? I would likee to stick with genuine, but if these suck ill look elsewhere:

AB sells a couple of different rubber mats, and yes they are good.
Why not throw you carpet mats in the washer on a gentle cycle, they will was out nicely.

Cam-I have the WeatherTech floor mats, front, rear and cargo. My carpet looks brand new and when they get dirty I just rinse them with the garden hose and dish soap.
Let them dry and back in the trk they go.

hey spike, how do those fit? Like generic ones would look awkward, but are those made to fit the truck exactly?

RE: Floor Mats
 
They fit really good, the cargo liner is a exact fit, the floor mats are really really close. They came with the trk when I bought it, but I would buy them myself knowing now what I know about them. I recommend them. If you would like I could take a pic tommorrow and post it for you.

Good to know, they are cheaper, and my grandpa has some on his GMC truck and I know they are really good quality, I also just found a genuine full set for $88 rather than $115. So now I guess I going to have to decide..... http://lrparts.dealerfit.com/store/l...d499_11823.php

Something to consider before you purchase, what is shipping going to cost you? You might save on the product but it will cost you more with shipping. But, those OEM mats do look nice.

Surprisingly shipping is the same as AB, I learned the hard way to ALWAYS check that... I once thought I was saving 10 bucks but ended up paying almost 15 more than I should have all because of shipping....

It's amazing how many people think that they are getting a good deal because they dont check shipping and handling charges. I wont order from a site that doesnt give a $ amount for shipping and handling.

I only order from AB in bulk. Wait till i need/want a few things. even if you get ONE decal, its 14.99 UPS shipping.

Cam, I have those genuine mats (front & rear) and the fit is perfect. They are very thick too so they won't wear out in a year or two.

RE: Floor Mats
 
I can take some pics of mine for ya if you want a better idea of how they look/fit (rear seats too if you want).

Disco2guy, some pics would be great, I love to see before I buy. Spike if you have some pics of the weather tech id like to see those too. Thanks

Ok Cam, I was wrong, the front and rear floor mats are Cannon, the cargo liner is Weathertech. The first pic is the drivers side, second is drivers rear and then of course the cargo liner. Now keep in mind that I work at a gravel company and our parking lot is dirt, and yes, I know that my trk needs to be vacumed.
There are still pine needles under the cargo liner from the Christmas tree!

Here are the genuine mats. The rear set comes in 2 pieces that "lock" together in the center.

Thanks guys for the pics!

FYI, The O.E.M. Mats are made of a rather flexible/softer plastic. If you have a spouse that usually drive wearing hi-heels or other girly type shoes with a pointy heel they will eventually wear a hole through the mat and gouge the carpet even.......ask me how I know...

I think as a replacement I'll go with Weathertech. They worked well for me in my last truck

Now that you mention it, my floor mats have held up nice against my 6" steleto's.

Thanks for the visual Spike!

Seriously, IMO, Weathertech or a similar replacement is the way to go for floor mats - they will last. The choice of rear cargo mat is simple because theWeathertech and O.E.M. are so similar in design and material, go with the best price.
