Does anyone run the carpet mat in the cargo area of their ride? I have been wanting to get one for my burb lately with how much stuff I have been throwing back there etc. Factory or aftermarket? I wont run weathertech stuff cause as good as it is, the hard rubber stuff makes things I put back there slide and that is a no go when talking about perfectly painted hotrod parts etc.

Husky has some good options.

I have a Lloyd cargo mat, it's plush carpet. This is the one I have - https://www.lloydmatsstore.com/ultimat-floor-mats
(if you go to "configure" you can pick the type of mat and color, etc)

If I have to haul something gross, I have a plastic mat from a different vehicle that I throw back there but take it out when I don't need it. I've never used my 3rd row seats, but if I did need to, the carpet mat could be rolled up and stowed easily. (unlike a plastic tray)

I like the Lloyd mat a lot, stuff doesn't roll around as much and I think it helps to dampen noise. Plus it looks great. I can take a pic of it later if you'd like.

Another Option.

I have a 4' x 6' mat manufactured by 3M, with the model name of Nomad Cushion Plus, that I've had in my previous and current truck for about 5 years. I've carried everything from cement, to plywood, to firewood, to fragile housewares on it, and it is still in the same condition that it was when I originally installed it.

It is heavy-weight, but flexible, and rolls up nicely, when you don't need it. The backing is about 3/16" thick, and the top is made of fiber loops coated in a plastic, probably urethane. It is virtually indestructible, and I strongly recommend it.

I've added some photos below, and please excuse the white dog hair from my 2 white Shepherds.

Harbor Freight movers blanket. Thick, tough, dark blue or gray, cheap. Covers the rear floor and up the sides a bit. Gets torn and beat up toss it and get a new one. Handy to lay down on when needed or cover something up to hide it in the rear.

I have the Husky Weather Beater carbo mat (love it) and from time to time, put those HF moving blankets down depending on what I'm hauling... best of both!

Up here in Canada, we have stores called Princess Auto, much like Harbour Frieght Tools in the USA. They sold some 3/4 inch thick, full width, trim to fit the length, rubber mats. Smooth rubber on one side and 1/2 inch round half dimples on the other. I put the smooth side up on top of the bare ( just insulation ) floor in the back of my PPV 2015 Suburban. There was no carpeting in the back cargo area when I bought it. The 3/4 inch fits like factory and lines up with the back door sill perfectly. The width is perfect, just had to trim the length down by about a foot. Nothing slides around back there any more. No problem. Cost me about $130.00 Cdn for the mat ( brand new, not surplus) , but the mat is quite heavy, you may need a hand to get it into your truck, but once it’s in ....
