Floormats

Im looking for a good set of front (dont need the rears) floormats that uses the factory anchor and doesnt cost a fortune. Id like some recommendations.

Id prefer carpeted but would consider a decent rubber set.

Im not looking for a cheap set from Auto Zone but dont need a $100 set of floormats.

An OEM set would be perfect but the price is outrageous at the dealer.

Husky Liners are good. I have them in the front and rear of my truck. They're custom fit for whatever year, make, and model of vehicle you want them for

Husky Liners here as well. They look great and really keep the crap off the carpet.

More like flexible plastic than rubber. They have a lip that runs around the edge to catch all the dirt. You just take them out and dump the dirt out and put them back. I really like them. I had them in my last truck too

I really like the WeatherTechs but not the price. So got the Rugged Ridge rubber molded ones. I really like them and saw them on sale for 20% off at 4WheelParts Wholesalers:

I have a set of the Nifty Catchalls and a set of Husky WB. I like the Niftys much better.

Im not sure if I really like the lip idea. I dont really get a ton of dirt and/or water in the truck but Id rather not trap it like that.

Seems like the Rugged Ridge mats only come in black. My interior is gray.

Just do like I did and buy the cheap black logo ones from AutoZone then drill a hole for the retaining hooks lol

All kidding aside, I tried to remove the one from the passenger side to shop vac the other day and it would not let go...maybe I did TOO good of a job.

x2 on the Nifty's. I had them in another truck and they work very well.

I have the CatchAlls as well, love them. they are carpeted but molded. The carpet matches the trucks carpet perfectly. When they get dirty just hose them down and let dry!

im a fan of my weathertech digital fit ones. my dad has the standard weathertech ones and they are okay.

husky liners are too hard for me, the digital fit ones form to the floor better.

if you want carpeted you have to get nifty catch alls. had a set in my jeep and loved them but dont think they make them for f150s?

Yes they do, I have set F&R in my truck. The come in the three standard F150 interior colors, grey, tan and black.

I have since replaced the front set with the new nifty catch-it mats because I wore a hole in the drivers mat with my heel. I don't like the fit of the catch-it, the lip by the gas pedal is too big and I'm always catching my shoe on it when I drive.

We got a set of husky liners in the farm truck, '00 F-250. They fit good, have a lip you got to drag over to get in and out though. Never understood why they put carpet in trucks anyways. It just costs us more money to keep it covered up since it's a pain to clean.
