    X2! This is the way to go. When you order from cabelas, they just put the order to wt and you get them shipped from wt. very happy with mine and they are like new even after 7 years.

    Where did you find them cheaper? I went to Cabelas and they are $20 more, plus shipping.

    It was about a year and a half ago I was pricing them out. They were a little more than half price if I remember correctly. They may have gone up.

    Anyone have pictures they could post showing interior shots with the Tacoma factory all weather mats front & rear?

    After reading this thread I am disappointed I ordered the yoga mats for my SR5 D.C. with manual & tow.
    In my previous 2000 TRD Sport I had the Huskys from 2004 'till Yoga bought them with my truck in January due to the frame rot.
    Yes I miss my TRD.

    Thanks everyone in advance!

    I only disliked my huskys because of the curling up, but the rear coverage was superb and they all contained every road soda or coffee I dropped/slipped!

    Do I cancel the mats and bring my new huskys with me to the dealer when I take delivery mid march?

    If it were me I would. Still haven't decided what to do with the Toyota all weather mats, they are basically worthless.

    Unless something changed since I bought weathertechs for the wife's Pilot, the Weathertech logo is just double sided taped into that recessed area. One of mine just fell out, not even any adhesive residue stuck to the mat. No holes under them either.

    Interesting. To be honest I haven't looked that hard at the logo. I just know I don't like it.

    As for the holes in the mat. I see how that is a dumb idea. However if I remember correctly, there is a raised lip surrounding the hole.

    For the record I was also unaware that husky made me than the one kind of mat.

    Quite honestly.... These are the best mats I've ever had. I've had them since I bought a Chevy Duramax back in 2001 (I know... I know). But the mats are perfect. They have deep channels for mud and dirt and I think I paid less than $10 per mat at WalMart. I'm not sure if they even make them anymore.
    They are Rubbermaid mats though.

    I've got huskies in my truck and they're good, especially for the price but compared to my brothers weathertechs in his first gen they aren't nearly as nice. Not sure what the second gen weathertechs look like but the first gen ones are perfectly molded where my huskies leave a bit to be desired. Just my opinion, if I were to do it again I'd probably go weathertech

    Anyone know if these factory all weathers at least come with backs or preferable a one piece, for the rears in the double cabs?

    Thanks!

    I am considering keeping the factory order with Tacoma all weathers and buying the husky X act contour for the rear. When the fronts wear out I will get weathertech fronts.

    Best of both worlds

    Things I need to tow.
    The OEM "all weather" mats for the double cabs are 4 separate pieces (2 front, 2 rear) and don't give all that great a coverage even though they have fairly deep grooves.

    Keep in mind that Toyota is still shell shocked from all the lawsuits regarding stuck throttles and their mats are for the most part skimpy (to absolutely miss the peddles) and have positive anchors to keep them located. I've attempted to attach a pic of the ones I took out of my truck. Note the snaps and anchor points. What you can't see are the warnings molded in the front mats to not put them on other mats (or other mats on them, I forget which).

    I have the Weather Techs they are great.

    I still have the original carpet mats that came with the truck, might have been stepped on once during the test drive, because I talked the dealer into a set of all weather mats.

    Which I still have, but soon realized they could not live up to the Weathertechs!

    Glad to have them, given the winter we have been having.

    Excellent picture for me to see and agree they will be inadequate.

    Thanks to all who have helped out!

    My truck came with weathertec mats when I bought it, but I would definitely buy them if I didn't have them. They cover the entire floor and keep my carpets spotless.

    Husky's. That weathertec cutout for the cleat is a show stopper. Why buy a floormat that leaks?

    Not my pic but it's the Weathertech rear mat for the double cab. You can see the raised lips for the front and back of the mat and also how it hugs the contours of the center console without blocking the AC vent.

    I feel like I constantly go against the grain on products Tacoma World peeps think are amazing but I find Weathertechs to be over rated. I've had the expensive fit ones in my trucks for about two years, maybe 1.5 and they don't fit like they use to. The pull away from the sides now enough that shit is always falling down between the mat and the sides of the center console and doors. Also, they don't clean up well. I pull them out regularly and scrub the hell out of them and they still look somewhat dirty.

    When I replace them I'll look hard at the husky line.
