    For your carpets and seats please take it to a detail shop and have them steam clean them with their cleaning chemicals. This will get rid of the damp smell.

    Rain water is purified. It will be just fine once it dries out. Put several large pans full of white rice in it to absorb the humidity.

    Walmart sells 4 pound pails of Damprid. Take the lid off and leave it in your truck. I keep one in my truck and they work great. I'll have a little water from my shoes on my floor liners after I wash my truck. Next day it is gone. Takes care of condensation on the inside of my windshield also!

    Leave the seal on the pail... just remove the lid and you are all set.

    Hardcore off road floor mats!
    I did the same damn thing within a month of purchasing my '16 Tacoma... It'll be ok, I put a bunch of Damprid in the truck and left the windows up. It was HOT. Kept changing it out and riding everywhere with the windows down.

    Haven't had a problem since. And there was a good 2 inches of water on the matts. Luckly they were water proof.
