Hillbilly Floormats!

Its winter. Snow sucks. Salt Sucks. Salt and Snow in your interior sucks even more. It's too cold for anyone to care what the inside of your car looks like. So on a bored Sunday morning:

leftover high traffic durable carpet: free
razor blade: $5 (free since everyone has one)
ruler: $7 (free since everyone has one)
not paying $100 for weather tech floorliners: priceless.




Best part is they never slide.


It's time to rename my FiT the Shaggin' Wagon.

I tested out some beforehand. It absorbs a shovelfull without going through the carpet. Far more than one could reasonably bring in on their boots. It's some pretty thick stuff.
