Vinyl / Rubber flooring recommendations

I'm just about to the point I want to install a floor liner in my truck. I will have lined the interior with Fatmat and a decoupler. I'm wondering what the recommendation is for flooring? Vinyl vs. rubber and who makes the best? Looking to block sound as well as possible. As always, pics are awesome.

I put a layer of mass-loaded vinyl down over mat and foam, then a LMC repro mat. Works and looks fine imo.

Re: Vinyl / Rubber flooring recommendations

Sorry I dont have any pics right now but I just installed a high hump mat from Classic Ind. Lots of trimming was involved. Not origional but the quality and thickness and general fit are good so far. I had to trim the sides, front, shifter, and all bolt holes.

Good Luck

Was there a huge sound difference? I don't expect a Lexus but I gotta knock down some of this noise.
