When looking for aftermarket upgrades for your work truck, a lot of people start with rubberized floor mats. Rubberized floor mats do a great job of protecting the carpeting in your truck while providing a great surface to deal with the inevitableย dirt and water youโre likely to encounter on the jobsite. We opted to try out WeatherTech FloorLiner DigitalFit Floor Mats as they come highly recommended and are a very common choice for Pros looking to outfit both new and usedย pickup trucks.
When you install a high-qualityย rubber floor liner you not only make sure the inside of your work truck is protected, you also add value to it by ensuring that the interior stays cleanโor at least remains cleanable. Whileย premium carpeted floor mats are certainly an option, going with a product like WeatherTech FloorLiner DigitalFit Floor Mats makes more sense as it delivers a superb amount of protection against mud and debris. When you work out in the field, itโs not uncommon to drag bits of concrete into the cabโthatโs like dragging rock along your carpet. It wonโt take long before youโve not only dirtied those mats, but youโve torn them to shreds. Rubberized floor matsย offerย something a bit more robust.
WeatherTech FloorLiner DigitalFit Floor Mats Features
The WeatherTech FloorLiner DigitalFitย floor matsย cover yourย interior carpet and cover the front, back and even the sides of the footwell of your truck. WeatherTech actually took digital laser measurements of the interior surfaces of various trucks, so all of their products are guaranteed to fit.ย They use aย High-Density Tri-Extruded (HDTE) material that has a strong rigid coreย with a base that delivers some friction so that the mats donโt move around.ย The surface is nice and โgrippyโ as well, so when you place tool boxes and items down on the mat they donโt tend to slide aroundโฆunless you corner like a NASCAR driver.
Theย WeatherTech FloorLiner DigitalFit floor matsย are designed with surfaceย channels that carry liquids and evenย debris to lowerย points on the mat. That keeps you from having to deal with standing water and also enables you to move easily clean and remove dirt and liquid from the matโs reservoir. The front driver-side WeatherTech mat also has a secure plastic button that snaps the mat into place so it doesnโt moveโgiving you stability when you drive.
WeatherTech Front Floor Mats
For the front mats you can chooseย a single mat that spans the entire front of the truckโincluding the center hump, or you canย installย two individual mats for the driver and passenger sides of the cabin. Because the individual mats are easier to remove and clean, we opted for thoseโyouโll have to decide which is best for your needs.
WeatherTech Rear FloorLiner Mats
For the rear of our Ford F-150 work truck we used the full-width system that delivers a perfect cover for the entire rear cargo area of our Super Crew cab. When you flip the seats up you end up with a storage area thatโs the size of a small apartmentโOK, perhaps itโs not quiteย thatย big, but thereโs certainly a lot of room. What I love about these WeatherTech floor mats is that they take into account that entire space, so that no matter how you use itโyouโre coveredโฆliterally. With the WeatherTech rear mats installed, we now have a work truck that has aย rear cab completely protectedย against wear and damage from mud, oil, and other liquids or abrasive materials.
The priceย for theย WeatherTech FloorLiner DigitalFit Floor Mats ranges from $200 to $252 depending upon the size of your truck cab and whether you want the full width or individual mat options. For more information check out the WeatherTechย website.
