    Hello Scotty, thank you for providing such great information, I have learned a lot from you. I have to agree with some other commentators who like the WeatherTech mats, they are great for northern climates. You just can’t help tracking slushy, salt-laden snow into your car then having it melt into a puddle seemingly sloshing around your feet while driving. The WeatherTech mats largely prevent moisture from reaching the carpets - I do get little leaks around the sides sometimes, but after using them in my Explorer for 5 years, the carpets are still in great shape. Thanks again for your great videos!

  • @magicrobharv
    @magicrobharv Před 6 lety +111

    I can't believe it, but I'm going to have to disagree with with you Scotty! For me, the best mats are WeatherTech mats, they're custom fit to your model of car. I live in North Dakota, so our car mats have to deal with snow and ice. When the snow and ice from your shoes melts, if you have regular style floor mats, the melted snow drips over and under the sides of the car mat and gets on the floor carpeting of your car, making it wet and nasty underneath the floor mat. The WeatherTech mat keeps it all in the mat because of the raised edges. You take the WeatherTech mat out, dump it out, clean it out, put it back in, and you're good to go.

    I used a rubber mat that looked like the ArmorAll one but I'm sure was a different brand. Anyway they seemed to work great until I cleaned the car in the spring and found I had trapped moisture under the mat. The carpet was all wet and mold had started to grow. Back to the factory carpet ones for me. Yes, they get wet but they dry out and I've never had mold grow under them.

    The best thing to do is clean your mats, then go to HD or Lowe's and buy a clear vinyl carpet protector and cut it to the exact size of the mat. It looks very nice, and your mats can't get wet or dirty. Simply wipe the vinyl with a damp rag to clean. I've used them since the 90's.

    Scotty--Like many of the viewers below, I purchased a set of Weather Tech floor mats for my 1996 Camry before I got it (purchased new). They're well-made, heavy rubber, require no special treatments and don't show wear. Mine still look good after 22 years of use. And, they come in any color you want as long as its black, tan or grey. When I heard you say the Manicci floor mats were LEATHER, I thought, "Say it isn't so, Scotty!" That's okay for the West Coast and states where the biggest problem is occasional rain, but for the Midwest and Northeast, where it snows six or more months a year, that's a no-go. It works in Texas, too, but they cost A LOT (in excess of $250), which is well beyond most peoples' budgets. In the Rustbelt, they wouldn't last more than a few years with the cold and slush they have to deal with. If the Weather Techs get dirty (say from fast food mishaps, or the kids track in a layer of slush), you just pull them out and hose them off. Try doing that with your wife's Maniccis. They might be the best in your view, but you have to add the qualifier, "For use only in fair-weather States".

    I just cut out some sections of rubber tarp for my old truck to keep mud and dirt out of the rug until I can refurbish the thing (the rug is still good).
    The only thing I don't like about using old tarps is that they slide around, but they're essentially free, so I can't really complain.
