I would definitely go with Husky's in your place. The OEM are good, too, but how many Ford logos does one truck need?
HAHA! That massive one in the middle of the grill is enough for me. I'm looking for fit and function before the need to be OEM. I'm definitely leaning towards huskys since they have a pretty darn good following here and they come with a clear film to protect the paint. I just wish I would have bought them when I did my floor mats. At that point everything was on sale.
I'm looking for slash guards/mud flaps because it seems I am getting an incredible amount of mud and stones etc coming off these tires. What is the current favorite OEM, Husky, something else? I am looking for a no drill clean yet functional look. What does everyone have experience with and what do you think of them. Thanks in advance.
I got a good deal on the OEM ones from the local dealership. A little cheaper than guards I found on Amazon. Easy to install. No Drill
I think the set of 4 factory mud flaps are within about $20 of the Huskys ($90 vs ~$110). So, you can save a few bucks going aftermarket, but I just went factory ... and it's just done for me. I think you'll be into it over $300 for the Gatorbacks. They look like a nice product, but that's at a radically different price point ... so, they had better be nearly life-changing mud flaps!
I ran the Duraflaps for awhile on the last truck as they are no drill. However, if you off road at all the material is way too stiff and some of the deeper mud holes I ran through cause the flaps to shift all over the place once they made contact with the ground.
I picked my truck up a couple days ago and had ordered the OEM mud guards. They do look good and I don't want to knock them, but had Husky guards on my last truck and they were much more robust . Time will tell.
