Can you clarify - did you buy a carpet for the rear of the cab (a stock carpet that covers the tank in a bucket seat truck) or did you pay a custom upholsterer to make a carpet for a truck for which you have removed the in-cab gas tank? If you bought a stock carpet, it is not made to fit in the cab without a tank (or at the very least, would require modification to make it fit somehow). The carpet guy comments are throwing me off - did he make the carpet or is he installing it for you? The more I look, I am assuming it's a custom carpet since I don't see the little hook loops for hanging it - so if it's custom, there's really no way for us to know if it's "right"(?) Not sure - sorry, not much help, just hoping to clarify the situation maybe.
