Thanks for all the replies.

I have the WeatherTech no drill mud flaps on my F150 and am happy with them. Ordered my next truck but WeatherTech says they're about 12 weeks out. Not sure if the OEM ones are no drill or not just yet.

I just installed rear mud flaps, mostly out of consideration for vehicles behind me. I also tow a travel trailer. Although it has diamond-plate protecting the front, I like the reduced risk.
I am waiting on the front set to arrive from Amazon. Those are to keep the snow/slush and debris off the running boards.

I ordered the Ford OEM splash guards. The fit is perfect, and the rears only took 20 minutes to install.

I have them on my truck, and all previous trucks I've owned. I'm in Construction, and it really does keep the mud and debris off of my paint.

i plan on putting a set on my truck. it kept mud/etc off the rocker panels and running boards on my Tacoma and i can already see how they can do the same on my XLT.

Would you have a pic or two of the '77 to post? Classic.

Biggest upside is keeping the snow off the running boards in the winter.

Trying to decide if I want to get them on my next truck - I have them currently.

Just installed today! Gatorbacks but these were freebee's from the dealership, so it was difficult not to install them.

I put on the Husky mud gaurds. Look great, install was super easy. Added the additional hole that needed to be drilled. no big deal. I was slightly concerned how they were going to handle the extreme and ice and slush of a MN winter, but they held up fine. And they are a must if you tow
