Re: Question for you guys who live in a blizzard..
So jealous. It's only snowed twice here this winter and neither time was enough to even fully cover the grass. It's been more like a very long, cold Fall. Driest on record, if I remember. My Sottozero 3's which got a real workout last winter have barely seen rain this year, let alone snow.
I keep hoping for a at least a couple good snows before Spring arrives.

Re: Question for you guys who live in a blizzard..
I'm with Klasse Act and Weather Techs for optimum winter protection. I have them for the front seats for my wife's and my DD's. I really appreciate the full coverage from the raised door sills and edges on the other three sides. 99% of the snow, slush and salt dragged into the car is contained therein. They are easy to pull out and clean with diluted APC, scrub brush and hard spray. i recommend the purchase of the floor liner protectant to help maintain the look and feel (tackiness) of the original as you don't want your feet to slip or slide. The liners are custom to each car and snap into place and stay there (assuming you have original snap in carpets). Living in MI with 5-6" today is exhibit A for me on their value.
I may be a little unusual because I also us the manufacturers winter mats for the back seats, and all the way around in the other three seasons as necessary. During those months we have a second condo with a dirty gravel parking lot which introduces either dry dust and dirt, or wet grime/dirt when it rains. In those instances the regular winter mats are more than sufficient. And when we're home with good parking I use the regular carpeted mats from the manufacturer which I like as the best of all the options. Unfortunately I can only use them the equivalent of three months per year, with the "winter" mats and the Weather Tech mats shared equally over the remaining 9 months.

Agree 100% on the WT's with their raised sides. I like that they are laser fitting to each car. I had All Weather OEM mats on my Audi and their were times the snow hit the carpet. It's also nice to support a company that makes 'em right here in the USA.
I just bought their mat protectant, so I'll see how that goes.

Re: Question for you guys who live in a blizzard..
You guys who have bought or are considering the WeatherTech floorliner protectant are really going to like how it brings the mats back to their original look. Once it dries, its NOT slippery one bit. I suggest buying the combo cleaner/protectant, it saves you a little bit of money when bought as a pair.
This company does EVERYTHING in house and I'm sure the owner is proud of his buildings, can't miss them on I-55 in Bolingbrook Illinois. This place is packed on the weekend and they have MANY other products for your ride, a real success story without a doubt!

The American made aspect of the WeatherTechs is what sold me initially.
I think mine were $119 back in 2012. (Regular Cab. Only 2 matts).
I believe the competitors product was around $85.
For something that will last basically as long as the vehicle, it was a no-brainer for me.
Imagine if we had all thought about this 40 years ago?? "Hey, the American made pack of T-shirts is $25 compared to $13.99 foreign made. But they are of better quality, and keep a fellow American employed...."

Sounds like you bought a new snow blower, Nate.
