    Mine were delivered yesterday and I just put them in.

    At first, I wasn't as impressed as I thought I would have been. They were kind of hard, and didn't fit as perfectly as people had said they did, and they seemed to slide around a bit unless because the hooks wouldn't go in very easily.

    However, after sitting out in the truck in the 30+ degree heat for a while, they softened up a bit and sort of molded into place, and now they're perfect!

    ;D

    I just got my weathertechs yesterday and they are awesome! Perfect fit and far better than the generic rubber mats I had.

    I really like my Weathertechs. The fit is what makes them so great for me.

    I just received my Weathertech's today. The fit is excellent, the grey mats almost perfectly match the interior color, and they're quite sturdy. Although this is just the initial impression, I have no doubt in my mind they'll hold up to the abuse that I'm about to put them through.

    They might be a little expensive, but I'll pay the extra money to support good quality and an American made product.

    I have mixed emotions about mine I received a few days ago. I have a 2010 regular cab. I had just missed out on the group buy, but reading so many positive reviews I just paid the painful full price for the digital fits directly from Weathertech.

    Well my passenger side mat fits like a glove and looks great. My drivers side mat doesn't fit nearly as well. For the lack of a better term, it just stays "popped up" floating a little above the floor seemingly. Every time I get in the truck I feel it move forward and down and I have to constantly fiddle with the area that goes partially over the dead pedal as it is always popped up there. It also is bent away from the center hump area of the floor whereas the passenger side fits it great.

    I think I just need to break out my heat gun and work with it a little more. I'm not real panicky about it or anything.

    I am to this point a little disappointed on how the drivers side mat fits for the money I paid and the reviews I had read. Plus my "new truck" smell is a thing of the past now, it smells like a rubber factory in the cab which surprises me because I've never read that complaint.

    I'm going to work with them some more and see how it goes. If I can't get them to suit me I'll pick up Husky Liners or maybe even the new Husky liners they just came out with and then just unload whichever one I don't like as well. Won't be the first or last time I ever lost money on something I bought if it comes to that.

    On the bright side, the black mats made my mostly grey interior look much much better. And look, I'm not trying to blame weathertech or the mats for the fitment. I figure it's most likely either:

    A: I haven't tried hard enough to make them fit properly (because I've been busy)

    B: I might just be too picky or have expected too much.

    If anyone has any tips other than heating and bending the opposite way, let me know. Been thinking about adding some weight on top of it while I'm not driving it, though I don't want to create more problems by doing that??

    Received my WeatherTech front & rear mats yesterday & they fit perfectly. I ordered the grey color & the color blends well with the graphite interior.

    I have a buddy who had the WT's in his truck. They look really nice and expensive. If you really beat up your truck, walk around in the slush and mud a lot, etc; then I think the Husky's are definitely a better buy.
