New truck on order so I'm looking for upgrades I can do all the while trying to save a few $$$$. Husky can be ignored for now as I see the thread below. Sounds as if they are a crap shoot but I do see advantages of covering the frame. I see Rugged Liner but there doesn't seem to be any consensus on them. And of course the OEM, which I have found at a somewhat reasonably close dealer for 20% off. Any input is appreciated.

I'm very satisfied with OEM. Found a fair price on eBay.

I think the vast majority go OEM or Husky. I went Husky for the extra coverage. Install took less than 15 minutes total. Check Amazon Warehouse Deals whatever you choose. I got mine for $44 "used-like new" (open box), but had to get the hardware from Husky directly (they got it to me in 2 days at no charge).

Same here.

OEM. Fit perfectly and super easy install. No cutting or trimming and you can still get to the shocks mounts if you have to.
Look on eBay there are Ford dealers selling them there.

I am looking for the same. From what I have seen, Rugged Liner may be an ok option as well as Rough Country.

Tenx82, good thinking, thanks. I've been following several threads and drew the conclusion you did. Looking back a few months there seems to have been a healthy price increase. OEM seem to run $135 to $150 now, while the Husky go about $20 less.

Saw Husky on Amazon for $85 back in April and kicked myself for not getting them then. Found them this week on the warehouse deals section for $80 and they were delivered today. If the weather holds i'll be installing them this afternoon when I get home. Read all the reviews and it seems to be real hit and miss as to how they fit, so we'll see.

There is a trick to getting them in easily, but requires jacking the truck, not the axle, up, then they roll right in. I like that the Husky covers all the openings for a clean look. You could have just ordered them with the truck though. Negotiated them into the price.
