I love my weathertechs

Good fit, no lip to bump/trip over on the way in, and holds all the muck/dirt without getting on the carpet.

Just ordered weathertechs based on positive feedback in the forum. A bit pricey but I need the best. Will let you know how they are.

I got mine at walmart and they seem to do just as well as any name brand stuff. Not an exact fit but pretty darn close after cutting it a little

I have the husky heavy duty mats. They fit well, don't move around, and for the front and rear, they were $50 cheaper than the dealer.

Ditto on that. The Husky's fit really well,but are slick when wet. I went ahead and bought Weathertech's also.

Somebody please enlighten me...

I just went on the weathertech website and looked at the floor mats. What is so special about them They look like a regular mats?

I have had huskeys for years, the best thing about them IMO is they keep the water in...not on the carpet. I just dont see how these will do that. Maybe Im looking at the wrong ones

The Husky's for the 3rd.s seem to have a harder,less pliant feel to them. I bought some from geno's only to be dissappointed when it rained. They were slick when entering or leaving the vehicle with wet shoes. Contrast that to Weathertech's which are heavier and are much higher in rubber content. i think the Weathertech's were maybe $15.00 higher than the Husky's. Worth the cost.

See how the WeatherTechs (in the pic above) have that lip that covers most of the door sill. The Huskys have the opposite, a high lip that must either be stepped on or over each time you get in and out. The W/T's also funnel the water out and over the door sill by design.

Like others mentioned, the W/T's also have a much better feel to them...especially when wet. I've had Huskys in most of my vehicles, but after having these W/T's I would never go back.

Ditto that.

There is a big difference between Husky's floor mats vs. their floor liners.

I use the weathertech mats. Really heavy-duty and made with a natural rubber. They hold a ton of dirt too.
