Re: non carpet options?

I haven’t tried that but seems like a better option than carpet for me. I didn’t know that was available so hopefully someone will chime in.

Re: non carpet options?

Are they the same manufacturer as the pick-up rubber mats?

The pickup mats have mixed reviews with most of the complaints about short life span. These threads may help you.

I'm running those mats. fit isnt great, especially the front piece over the trans tunnel and up along the firewall. Would not buy again FWIW

Re: non carpet options?

personally, once I fix the rust in my truck, I plan to have the metal sections of the floors covered in blue raptor liner....tinted to match the color, and then do a custom "Mexican Blanket" carpet in the rear.

Re: non carpet options?

All of my driver trucks and burbs have had the rubber mats. I love them, easy upkeep. But I had a couple that I used carpeted floor mats over the top, I think its a good compromise. Know you're going to get things mucky, take out the carpeted mats.

I really like the fact someone built a full set for burbs (I have that factory in my 72 Burb), too bad the fitment is poor on the aftermarkets.

Ive had good luck with my aftermarket truck mats. I dont remember the brand but I believe I got them from vendor board members Frank PICKMUP or Wes Classicheartbeat, probably both. Course getting the truck mats dont help with whats going on past the front bench on a burb, maybe a start though?
