    Just got my Husky floor mats today. They're awesome, fit great, look great, and expect them to work great. Got a good deal on them from eBay, brand new under $50.

    I bought a pair from AutoAnything and had a discount coupon. I think they as good as Weather Tech and cheaper and made in America too.

    I have a set of black ones, they look dirty all the time. It sorta pissed me off, till I thought about it and realized that that is their mission in life. I would buy grey ones next time.

    Personally, I feel the WeatherTech's blow Huskys away. I've seen Huskys literally break from the cold.

    I would second that. I've run WeatherTech's for ages and had not a single issue with them.

    Had they actually had the option for my truck, I’d have tried them. Weathertech doesn’t make them for my back seat though. Husky does

    I wish I would have got those instead of the weather tech, I had the husky before and really liked them, then I started reading post on here and I admit, I did drank the kool aid and bought the weathertechs. Damnation I say!

    That's totally understandable. It just bothers me when some one throws out that one brand is better than the other but doesn't even say why they think that.

    I do like the Husky X-act Contour better because they are soft, more like rubber. You can roll or fold them to take out. Weathertechs are nice, but very stiff, more like plastic.

    I've been running front and rear weathertechs for my 2012 DCSB since they came out with the new ones for the '12 redesign and they are still running just as strong as the day I put them in. Could not be happier with the durability or performance - the way they run up the wall on the sides a couple inches has made a world of difference when there are muddy, wet, or snowy boots on everyone's feet. I don't know how long the Husky's have been on the market but if they last as long as the weathertechs then I'm sure they're great too.

    I've never had WT, though they get great reviews. I don't like that hard, plastic feel. I love my Husky Xact Contours. I find the pliable rubber material more appealing.

    They've spent a lot of time in sub 0 degree weather and didn't even stiffen. I'd be curious what model you witnessed actually break from cold.

    It gets stupid cold where I am and I've never had a problem with my Huskys. Why would they break? They're not moving. They're floor mats.

    I bought the Huskys initially because they come up higher under the clutch pedal so I wouldn't have any problems with the clutch snagging the floor mat.

    Yeah, I'm in NW Montana. Similar weather, but a longer cold season.

    Thank you for giving an actual reason why you like them! Way more useful information than just “I like them more.” :bowdown:

    Never had husky mats , always ran weathertech. I have heard good and bad about both. Ive come to the conclusion that no matter what it is there are people that love and hate the same thing. Some hate tacomas and love Colorados, some love tacomas and hate colorados. Everything is just preference these days
