Do you still add floor mats with carpet delete?

You will want them, at least in the front. Can take them out and dump the dirt.

I still think the BEST reason to go with the rubber floor, and the reason I chose it was so that I didn't have to screw around with floor mats. Hand broom sweeps it out in seconds, shop vac works equally as well, wet rag cleans it all up quickly. I understand wanting carpet delete for dogs but I just do not understand wanting floor mats on a rubber floor. Again, I guess that makes me the strange one... Do you guys all double rubber in bed too?

I'd be concerned about the mats causing a hazard somehow, like slipping around at a bad time...unless they are screwed down.

Yeah it should have the posts. If not you are SOL on floormats.

As far as the mat its so dirt doesn’t get under the seat. Pop it out and dump it out. Doesn’t get all of it but most of it.

Such a simple concept, it's hard to believe some just don't understand it.

Also, I posted this in another thread, not a big deal for most, but if you bring in a lot of rain water or snow it can tend to run under the sill plates, into a channel, instead of over and out.
I went the carpet delete option and then added Husky X-Act Contour mats to both front seats and and the rear floor. Super easy to clean and I have no regrets on skipping the carpet. I also went a step further and ordered a 4knines seat cover/hammock for the rear to keep the dog contained. Works great.

I would say yes, even if some of the sites don't yet list 2022MY. The truck in the thread bellow is a 2022, vinyl floor and Husky X-act contour liners.

I ordered carpet delete on a new Lariat, (picking up this weekend) and I'm considering carpet floor mats. They are cheap on ebay from people who are unloading the ones that came with their truck. I figure it might add a little comfort and be easy to clean. Not sure if they will fit though.

The factory carpet mats on the passenger side don't locate onto posts like the drivers side does. If the carpeted drivers side mat does fit the posts on the vinyl floor (not sure if it will), the passenger side won't and may slide around.

My platinum had the delete and came with both the carpet platinum badged mats and the rubber superduty mats. So I am guessing you are ok. But I can honestly say I never tried the carpet ones I used them to soak up a leaky car.


But to throw another twist. My 2015 lariat f150 crew cab aluminum truck (fairly early one) got the ford rubber mats (bought them in the parts department). I kept them when I sold it and they wont snap in both holes of my 2016 f150 regular cab xl; so they changed up sometime for no reason.

I ordered my 2022 XLT with carpet delete and the factory floor mats to match (there are 2 kinds, for carpet or not)
It's true that a little broom/brush will sweep dirt right out , it will sweep better with mats. Further, when (not if) Sweet Wife spills her triple latte in the floor the mats can be tossed out onto the driveway and pressure washed.

I already have my little brush in my box of truck stuff. What I need now is a truck...

maybe the dealership has a truck with carpet mats I can test when I pick it up.
