    I am about to replace my cab floor carpet. I would like to get your input. I was thinking if I should replace it with vinyl or carpet. What do you all think, I am in the process of putting down some Por-15 to prevent rust.

    I'd say carpet, but why were you thinking of vinyl? I do like vinyl in some cases.

    Carpet, definitely. I hate my vinyl floor, anyway autoparts stores that sell items from the "Performance Corner" catalogues sell it for fairly cheap, I was quoted around $128, too broke to get it though.

    i'd say it depends on what your doing..allot of offroading and getting dirty=vinyl just a street machine and trying to stay looking good=carpet

    JC Whitney sells carpet kits

    I plan on getting my vinyl or carpet from them. I can vouch for their great service. Last week I ordered some samples from the website and it came in a few days and really came in handy having the different colors to compare on person. Looks like a quality product.
