Re: Interior: Carpet or Vinyl
I have a preference for a vinyl floor. Lots easier to keep clean, and since I drive rain or snow, not having to worry about carpets getting wet is a bonus.

Re: Interior: Carpet or Vinyl
that's my opinion too, considering how my trucks get used. I'm still assembling the truck in my signature, but it's definitely not going to have carpet. I'll start out with a bare metal floor, and will later upgrade to a MIP mat from LMCtruck. It looks like the longest lasting waterproof option for the money. Cow manure and mud are simply two realities of Virginia winters, and a farm-based truck needs to accommodate.

Floors ~ Carpet or Vinyl
It depends on where you live .
Rubber mats are super easy to clean and if you keep them clean they last forever, don't wear like carpets do . The flip side is : rubber mats also trap any moisture underneath no matter how slight and force the cab floor to rust . Me, I love rubber mats but always go with carpet as soon as the mats cracks or tears . Most don't keep their trucks long enough to discover the rubber mat ruins the cab floor, I do, it's a rare thing for me to have a truck younger than 25 ~ 30 years old . Even here in the California Desert your floor will rust away in a few short years .
