It did come stock with the truck. The vinyl is much better than carpet for my lifestyle. With dogs in and out of the truck and snow and mud constantly around me, carpet is a hassle. My last truck had carpet and I much prefer the vinyl. Carpet will definitely give the interior a more luxury than utility look but I don't think any of us buy trucks for how classy they make us look.
Lol, I'd wager that a majority buy trucks now as a luxury. My theory is those SUV driving soccer moms/dads have been targeted by advertising and they bought into it. Look at how cushy these trucks have become and look at all the MPG, the ride is bad, something rattles, it's not quiet enough, etc threads!

I think your on to something. People forget theses are trucks. I do appreciate all of the upgrades that have made them more pleasurable to drive, but I know it's not going to be as quiet, or refined as my wife's Acura.
But I still want mine with carpet
Looks and comfort were definitely a big factor in my truck purchase. I'll take soft carpet and a couple extra minutes of cleaning over vinyl every time.
Spent 60 on a navigator rear center console, painted it with spray paint i had (should have just bought better matching paint, oh well) and the re-upolstered the lid with about 10 dollars worth of marine vinyl.
not too shabby for $70. Not sure how i feel about it yet, but definitely like it more than the crappy jumpseat.

Which jump seat did you have? I'm looking for one that has the cup holders on the backside...
Looking back, I realize I may have been a bit rude to rag on those who like carpet. I will admit that clean carpet looks better than the vinyl, and not everyone buys a truck to take it to the farm and get it dirty.
With kids, dogs, and plenty of trips to places that bring mud, sand, snow, and salt into the cab. My carpet would go the way of the dodo if I didn't get good mats for it. I spent about $200+ on mats for the font and back, and they cover 90% of the carpet. Yet somehow dirt still gets under them, and every month or so I need to pull them out and vacuum. I wish I had been able to find a good Screw with the vinyl. Maybe next time....
