Default Floor Mats? What's good?

I'm looking for some good winter floor mats for my '05 Dakota Quad Cab.
Grey.

I'm in Wisconsin so I'd like something that'd hold the snow and slush.

If your really worried about Slush, Snow and Salt (Or salt stains) I know someone makes Custom Floor mats that cover the entire floor area basically. Might of been Husky like Dakotaff said.

I have just Deep floor mats But they dont cover the entire floor, so I have salt stains still from last winter.
We use TONS of salt here.

I just ordered a set of weather tech digital fit matts for my 05 quad cab last week. they should show up on my doorstep tomorrow. I think i will like them alot as i've seen them in other vehicles. I will try to follow up and let you know what i think of them when they arrive.

I've had both the Weathertech Digital fit mats and the Husky liners. I sold the Weathertechs because the Husky liners go up a bit further in back (by the toes).
The major difference is where your left foot sits while driving. With the Weathertechs, the slush & dirt from your shoes go up over the top and end up underneath the floor mat.
With the Husky's, your (left) foot does not go above the mat, so everything falls into the floor mat.

Here are pics of each.

Husky Liners


They are both great floormats, but I found the Huskys are a little bit better. The rear mats are pretty much identical with both brands.

I have the weather techs and I'm quite happy with them. I prefer the way they look in black over the husky's but that's personal preference. Can't see anyone having problems with the coverage on them though, it covers everything you'd need unless you like to put your boots behind the pedals.
