Crazy as it sounds, I would order a new truck and trade in before I went through the task of deleting carpet manually.
It's not that big of a deal, quite honestly. I had the interior of my '99 in and out about 5 times when I was putting the stereo in... having the right tools help, and, as I mentioned, a second set of arms.
If you do decide to remove the carpet, I would love to know how it goes. I’m carpet free in my 23, and I’m not sure I’ll ever go back. If I ever get a different truck that doesn’t come carpet free, that will be the first thing I might change. Every time I get into our other vehicle and clean the floor, I curse the dog hair embedded in the carpet. Two wire hair Jack Russell pups!
Also, one of the Jack’s can’t go more than 5 turns in a vehicle without vomiting. Having no carpet makes cleanup much easier when it misses the floor mats.
I like the Husky mats in my new 2024. I didn't like the Weathertechs I got with my used 2014, although I never did replace them. They were thin & continued to warp the whole time I owned the truck.
I'd probably do a carpet delete if I ever ordered a truck.
I was going to get the matts quickly, but she made me do it immediately. She also gets car sick, so a good spill containing mat in the back is mandatory.
I’ve had both, and for my uses, it doesn’t matter one way or another.
Now, a friend of mine had a ‘23 with vinyl floors and he lets his dog ride in the back seat. When the windows are down, it’s like being in a wind tunnel with someone shoveling dog hair in front of the fan. Anything loose on the floor (dog hair, dust) gets blown around the cab. I hated that “feature” of vinyl floors.

Yes to the wind tunnel with hair, but he likes windows down. The backseat cover with the floor extender makes it nice for big dogs too. Anyone else got fold out steps? lol.

i will, but dang, it looks like a lot of crap to come out without seeing it done first..

What are those steps? My miniature Aussie just turned 10 the other day and jumping in and out is bothering him.

Try having 2 Great Pyrenees. They either ride in the bed of the SD or the ext cab of my old truck. Even then the hair is a mess! Sometimes the wife will transport them in the back of her CUV on the vinyl mat. They don't like leaving their territory, so only for the annual vet trip do they go anywhere.
I'll use AC when it's 65 and dark. I like it cool.Now I'll put the windows down under 30 mph only when the dogs are in the truck and we're cruising forest/ blm roads.
