Bought my wife an excursion a while back and it didn't have any floor mats, I just cut out some household carpet we had leftover to make due. Been looking on these websites and I'm leaning towards husky, but my wife isn't too fond of the hard plastic weathertech mats my brother used to have. I think they husky mats are more flexible. Are all rubber mats trimmed to fit? I haven't had much luck calling these places, and have yet to get an email back. Is anyone here an vendor or have a set in a vehicle that can give some feedback on?

We have Weather Tech Digital Fit floor liners in all our cars. Love them. Will put them in every car we get in the future.

The Husky Weatherbeaters we have in the C-Max are form fitted just like the WeatherTech Digitalfit mats we purchased for other cars, but they're less cost, likely because they're slightly thinner. That being said, even though they're thinner than WeatherTech I seriously doubt I'll ever wear them out.

My parents just bought a set of weather tech mats for their truck. Just put them in over the weekend. I am not impressed with the fit. They look like great mats, but did not fit to the contours of the foot wells very well.

I have quadratec/rugged ridge floormats in my Jeep. Very thick and durable, but still form fitting and cover the whole footwell. Snow and water collects in them to be dumped out or let evaporate, they are great.

I just bought a set of husky for my Focus ST, reason being they had better coverage than the weather tech mats. Nice mats

I had weathertechs and liked them besides the passenger side one. It slid around way too much, no grip underneath it. My gf's husky liners have something underneath them to grip the carpet and they work well

We bought weathertechs for our new car. I am not impressed with them at all, especially for the price. Never again.

On the drivers side they could cover more area. The retainers that snap into the posts in the carpet pop out of the mat and stay stuck to the posts and I can't get them off. They seem cheaply made and the passenger side mat slides around a lot.

had husky liners in my Wrangler, didn't like them, very cheap feeling. Weathertech in everything else and love them, not issues with fitment at all.

If they were cold when you put them in, they aren't going to lay perfectly. After they warm up and go through some heat cycles, they'll fit like gloves.

Also, everyone needs to be aware that Weather Tech has regular mats and then the Digital Fit floor liners. The floor liners are what you want. They cost a lot more, but are well worth the investment.

I said we got the mats, but we actually got the liners. I forgot they had mats and liners. It has been a little cool here lately, so hopefully when it warms up they fit the contours better.

I have the Weathertech liners for My '11 F-150 and just bought them for all floors in my Wife's '14 Edge. The fitment is perfect and they function as advertised. I will buy them for every vehicle I buy from now on, I wish I hadn't waited. They are carpet and OEM floor mat savers fosho, and well worth the money IMO. Especially in the northeast where I live. I'm not sure about sliding around like mentioned above...if they're installed correctly they don't move unless they're pulled out because they have mounting posts with velcro on the top.

I uaually buy weathertech for all my vehicles, I have them in my wifes Explorer Sport since new.

I just put Husky's in my F150, while they fit nothing like the weathertechs, I was going for cheaper...and they do the job.

I put Weathertech Digital Fit in my '12 Explorer around the first of the year. As soon as my dad saw them he ordered a set for his '06 F150.

I love mine and like others have said, they will be going in every vehicle I have from now on. I am mad I waited over a year to put them in this car.
