The Weathertech's are great. And I too hate flaps. But, I also hate a dirty truck.

Everything's a compromise.
I didn't think of that...thanx for the heads up👍

Don't quote me on this because my truck isn't done yet, but I'd think this would be remedied with a lift or level..?

I have a RC 2" level but still good to know and check when running larger tires as I am

Ok good deal. In that case, let me know what you find out because that's what I'm getting as well !

Yep, most modifications require a compromising modification for the modification!

I'll sure be glad when I get my planned modifications done so I can actually enjoy the truck... Seems like they never end!

Sure will...Problem is I'm not sure what I want do yet...I also kinda like the Bushwackers but there a bit pricey compared to flaps...

Just bought a 2017 Platinum Ecoboost last night. Need to get mud flaps (guards) for it. Trying to decide between the Husky's and the Ford OEM's. I like the look of the Husky's but I'm concerned that they are only mounted with 3M tape. I would feel more comfortable with screws holding them on. Any comments? (thinking of winter when they fill up with snow/ice)

Thank you for replying. I watched that video on their website and they look very nice. Just wondering if anyone has ever had issues with them falling off. Do you have them in stock for my truck right now? (2017 F150 with factory fender flares)
