Do Weathertech mats/Husky mats take away from a trucks nice look?

I much prefer the looks with stock carpet floor mats, but I bought the Husky Weatherbeaters to keep the carpets looking as new as possible. I actually like them more than I thought I would, and they're super easy to keep clean. Hopefully when I have this truck 10+ years down the road and go to sell it, the interior will look as good as the day it rolled out of the factory.

My truck actually came with the all-weather Ford floor matts and I took those out and put the husky's in and love them. My floors can get nasty when I go hunting & fishing....especially in rainy/snowy weather. I learned the hard way in my last truck how one 'messy' outing in Virginia's red clay based soil can pretty much ruin your carpet for the life of the truck. It sucks when you clean your truck up and still see stains in the carpet/matts that you can't get out. The husky's are great at containing the mess and are way easier to clean up than carpet.
The carpet looks nice, but in reality it is a pain if you use your truck in messy situations on a fairly regular basis. If they offered a non-carpeted/all weather floor in the Lariat trim I would have gotten it without hesitation.

I had OEM all weather mats in my second gen Fusions, and when I went to sell the second one I found that they had split. The carpet underneath was a royal mess. Since then been sticking with either Weathertech or Husky depending on the vehicle. In the 13+ Fusion the Husky covered more carpet where your foot would rest. In the Flex though the Weathertechs covered more.

The weathertech mats in my girlfriends Honda got stiff and ridged . My Husky mats I bought new in 2011. I put them in my 2015 when I bought that. They are still very flexable and like new.
And I don't buy trucks with carpet. I want vinyl floors. I use my truck. Snow mud dirt all get tracked in . If the mat don't catch it. Pull the mat and sweep it out. Its clean.

Yeah I've had mine for about 18 months and still look great. Just wipe them down every few weeks and you're good to go. I'll take them out and vacuum the carpets every few months for the little bit of dirt that happens to get in around the edges. Just satisfies my OCD haha.

I never worried for a second how they would look but after covering every bit of floor space I could with the Husky's, including the center hump, they look excellent. I highly recommend them.
