I have Huskys for our Expedition, but they seem too stiff. I've run Ford Genuine's on every truck since 2000, and only cracked one by backing into a rock. That's 10 different trucks with great success. I have beat them all with my snowbrush to knock off the snow and ice, and have had no failures. My only gripe is that Pueblo Gold colored ones aren't made for Ford to match the King Ranch boards or the tan boards on the Expeditions. That's why I resorted to the Huskys for the Expy. Those I am painting once I can stomach $40 for a spray can of paint to match... DuploColor doesnt make Pueblo Gold in a large can.

2. Went on with no issues. No pics at the moment, I'm getting clutch friction plate packs replaced, maybe Tuesday I'll have it back.
3. Pickup Outfitters in St. Ann (St. Louis, MO), 84.00 incl. tax cash and carry.
They have all the weathertech stuff + bedrug/bedtred/bed mat things as well.

If I'm not mistaken, I think the Ford ones are longer than Husky's, but don't seem as wide. Husky's look like they protect more of the inside lip of the wheel well. They are stiffer also.

I have an 04, but on my truck I have Husky front and Oem Ford rear. The Husky's are definitely stiffer but I like how they cover the side of the truck. The Ford ones don't stick out as much IIRC. Ford didn't have what I wanted at the dealer, so I went with the Huskies. They make nice products. One thing I liked about Husky's was their attention to detail. I have access to vinyl from my dad's shop anyways, but they provided clear vinyl cut to the shape of the part of the mudflap that comes in contact with the truck to prevent scratching and such. I liked that feature a lot. I also did not drill into my truck, but rather used 3M auto tape (the black stuff with red backing) to hold where the screws would. Worked perfectly and the other fasteners that were on the truck hold the flaps on in the other areas as per the directions.
Hope that helps

I have had Weathertechs on some vehicles, they do a great job ... as do their rain deflectors (ventshades).
But on the FX4 I have molded splash guards and with the factory side step bars, they block almost everything from hitting the lower body. It's an 07 and has no chips at all.
Well ..... I thought these were the factory ones? They were on the truck when I purchased it and work super.
Now that I think about it, not sure I ever looked at fine print on them. The ones on my Merc and T-Birds have Merc or T-Bird logos? Here's a pic, I had to brighten it some to show splash guards.
I'll look when I gop out here in a few minutes and post back if not FORD stuff.
Edited later say they aren't "Ford" OEM, but nice just the same.
Yep, you are right! I just looked this evening when we got back from our meeting .... no writing anywhere inside or otherwise, but they fit and look so nice and work so well .... looked at Husky Products, looks just like # 56591 front and # 57591 rear.
