Post Changing out the carpet

I am looking at replacing the carpet out for something a little more durable. I have had in a previouse truck rubber flooring, it was supper easy to clean and low maintenance. I'm looking at either rubber or vinyl. What are y'alls opinions/experiences?

I test drove a ranger with vinyl flooring. If you do that make sure you get some padding because its really loud and uncomfortable

I agree, that's also one thing that I need to get some opinions on, my previouse truck had rubber and some type of padding and it was supper nice, the cab was quiet.

Unfortunatly i have the XLT package. I want rubber floors so the things easier to clean since i wear my fire fighting bunker gear to most calls in my personal truck. So hard to get the stains out the carpet...

I agree. I hate trying to clean carpet. I lived in Florida for a while and the sand down there was zoo hard to get out of my dads truck because it would stick to the carpet. But in mine that I had at the time it was supper nice just brush into a pile and suck it up! But I wanna see what other peoples opinions are and where I could buy the replacement rubber for cheap.

There are places on ebay that sell them cheap but I've heard of fitment issues around the trans tunnel because its not molded correctly. LMC also sells them not sure of price though. Id say get a roll of sound deadening and put it down (doesn't have to be dynamat or anything crazy expensive off brands work well to) and then put in your vinyl.
