    curious to know if WeatherTech is better

    everyone here seems to like Husky liners more
    I have a set and they work. Was cheaper than WeatherTech

    But theyre grey and want to switch to something black. To hide dirt and wear better, and match blacking out the interior

    I think WeatherTech is the one a seller on here makes nice badges to put on but that’s not the biggest deal

    actually, now that I think about it, WeatherTech appears to have holes for retainers which is dumb. That would let things pass into the hole and is not needed on a full coverage liner.
    Unlike the Husky. It has no hole, and still retains and sits in place fine.

    Nothing wrong with WeatherTech. Previous owner put them in my 2014 when it was new, and after a good power washing every once in a while, they still look 100% new.

    I have had Husky since I bought my truck. 9 years or so. They do a great job and clean up really well. The fit is still great. Not in a Tacoma but my last Dodge I had WeatherTechs, the fit by the door was pulling away over time. But they still did a fine job...


    Be Safe...

    Replaced my exhaust (muffler/tail pipe). I don't think the replacement pipe was bent just right because I had to cut the tip off for it to fit.
    Doesn't matter as I was going to cut it anyway for off-roading so it doesn't get bent. I need to clean up the cut I made (was in a hurry) and add a tip.

    ill say this don't get the flowmaster Extreme outlaw exhaust if you own a short bed truck. that 13in of pipe you cut off make it way louder in the cab. have a friend with the same exhaust on a long bed and it seems way less obnoxious. but hey got mine from a shop who was using it as a display and it had some scrapes and scratches on the piping and a dent on the lip of the exhaust and it was $200 so I thought it be a cool addition. it is tucks up well but i may be buying a more mellow muffler. and still was cheaper then my local shop quoted me to do the same, so there is that.

    That has the potential to be a real shitty situation.

    Got called into work last night at midnight to plow the latest NE snowfall. Had a three hour break with access to our shop so drained, flushed and refilled with Peak 50/50 Pink coolant. Had a new funnel set in the truck that I had picked up on Amazon. The small cap fit my 09 perfectly and made ‘burping’ any/all air from the system easy..
