Carpet delete is good choice for me. Living in MI there is a lot of salt spread in winter and it gets crusty in the carpet eventually.

I find the vinyl floor covering to be good quality, is not overly shiny and it has a padded backing. I do use Husky x-factor floor liners. Clean up is easy with wet towel..

We ordered a carpet delete and the vinyl is super nice. I like carpet in our cars, but in a truck that I’ll be getting into with muddy shoes, vinyl is the way to go.

Carpet with husky liners that cover it. I like the sound deading that carpet can help with.

As far as acoustics go, the stereo can be a bit harsh with all vinyl. I added seat covers and It mellowed out tremendously. If you're referring to road noise there's no difference between vinyl and carpet that I have noticed.

Vinyl flooring is one of my favorite things about my new truck. Never understood why they put carpet in a vehicle, then you spend a fortune buying floor mats to cover it up and protect it. I did put some cheapie floor mats in the front just to make it easier to dump out the dirt, but otherwise a quick vacuum and wipe with a damp towel, and it looks good as new.

I got Carpet Delete in my King Ranch and will never go back to having carpet in a truck.

Why did it take this long for manufacturers to figure this out???

Ford had a carpet delete option in 1979...
Had the carpet deleted on a custom F350 order back then.

Carpet is a quick vacuum clean, the vinyl flooring needs to be vacuumed and wiped down otherwise it remains dirty looking like any other hard surface. Carpet hides a lot

I'm not so sure about that... I've had more vinyl than I've had carpet in the last 45 years. I'll take vinyl and Armor-all any day of the week. You won't regret it.

Does anyone have pictures of their trucks with the vinyl floor? Thinking of going this route as well.
