I added two wireless charging pads to the pocket in front of my console. Took the guts out of the pads and hot glued them to the bottom of the pocket. They are wired to a USB outlet. Only downside is the USB outlet is connected to my cigarette lighter circuit so it is constant hot (I don't know who decided that none of the outlets in these trucks would be key hot). If I notice it draining the battery I will probably wire in a relay. Sorry for the lack of pictures, but they are in this pocket. Charges even my work phone through a thick otterbox.

I have nothing in the second row -- they're usually folded -- but the same huskyliner in the cargo area as @Sam Harris, in black.

My front rows are these Lunds: https://www.lundtruck.com/lund-583002-b-catch-it-carpet-floor-mat-front

They're molded, very stiff, and don't move a bit. The carpet is not plush, but at least it's not slick plastic like some of the other liners, and they hose down good. I need a place to plant my left foot so it doesn't slip.
I like those way better than any of the vinyl liners, they look pretty good. I take it you like them- have any pics of them in your rig?

I thought I had some pics but I can't find them. I'll get out there and see if I can get a shot of the driver's side. The other side is blocked in the garage.

EDIT, the lighting's not great, but here's one. They are very stiff and are a great fit.

Dang, I was hoping they were the tan ones so I could see how close the color is to the stock carpet. That looks good though.

I reupholstered the one I bought for my Silverado and I can say it’s not easy to make those look perfect. That looks great.

My best friend and his buddy helped me. I need to name them big red and little red.

My late father in law used to say you're cool with the right tool. Well, I'm not cool but these are the best. Just got them last year. Oh my...what a blessing they are.

The little light is way better than you can imagine.

Fun weekend part 1.
Rad flush and fill
Thermostat replacement.
Passenger side spark plugs.
Valley pan gasket.
4 post coolant hose gasket.
Knock sensors replaced and wire connection spliced and replaced.
Fuel injector o rings replaced, brown and blue.

Tomorrow is the driver side spark plugs, the intake manifold gaskets, the differential cover and drain and fill. Painting the calipers red. And looking for an AC leak.

Today, I had a brake pedal that went straight to the floor. Sure enough, a puddle of brake fluid back by the gas tank. Haven't investigated yet, but I do have a complete set of lines waiting to be swapped in; I guess that time is now!
I won't "Like" this. Same thing happened to me--I'm sure it's happened to ALOT of us. Rusty rear brake lines--Fo Sho.
