Title: WeatherTech
Post by: garmp on May 15, 2021, 12:20:44 pm

I know this has probably been discussed a hundred times, but I could not find any info on this board.
Will WeatherTech floor mats fit my E450? On their web site I can select Econoline E series, but they have this disclaimer: Please Note: Will not fit models with aftermarket up fitter carpet installed."
My confusion is "up fitter carpet". I guess that would apply to Phoenix's upgrades.
Has any one tried these? Or what did you use? From where? How much?

thanks

This is what I ordered.  Remember the E-450 is a 2019 on a 2020 model PC.   
They fit perfectly.

I bought the same mats as RonJ for my 2019 PC (2018 450 chassis).  Worked great.  Since then I believe I have seen where the actual floor liners (with the raised sides) are now available for the E-450--but in black only if I remember correctly.
I have the liners in some of my other vehicles, and prefer them to the floor-mats for protection--but the WeatherTech mats are pretty good.

Got the same mats:

They fit well and don't look bad. Probably not as effective as the floor liners.

I  ordered way back when 2016 was new and they have fit well and lasted nicely. I have them in several vehicles and they are a save the day item.

I got the same mats as well. I also removed the carpet and installed a custom fit vinyl floor.

I've used both the tray style floor liners and the rubber mats (above link).  While the tray liner catch more muck, they never aged well for us, they looked scratched up and dirty because they are a harder plastic.  The rubber mats looked better longer, and we are not tracking that much muck into the RV anyhow...

I ordered a set of Weathertech for my 2021 2552 (E-450 series) and they fit fine on top of the carpet.  I elected not to install the snap-in rings that came with the liners because I didn't want to cut into the carpet.  I did some heavy duty velcro where there was no carpet but the velcro didn't work very well.  As it is, I am happy with the Weathertech since they will protect the carpet.

Years ago I found new Ford OEM carpet floor mats in our 2007 Ford E350 cab color, sold on eBay priced affordably back then.  When driving all day long, I like to take my shoes off so the carpet floor mat is comfortable on my stocking feet.

I am surprised the carpet mats don't "soil" much at all.  We must camp in clean dirt all the time.  roflol
