I've had good reviews on the Weathertechs; their floor mats are fantastic and they're made in the USA (my Ram came with the weathertech floor mats, and my last two fords both had the weathertech mats as well; they're incredibly durable). I just bought my 2021 Ram 1500 and have ordered a full set. I'll update this response after I receive them.

damfarm....TX for that. I noticed on the weathertech that the holes perfectly match what's on the Ram. The Husky's have a "quick connect" system which makes me wonder, however they say they fit with absolutely no problems. Again, TX !!

I just put the huskies on my 2019 bighorn and they are quality. They use the existing screws and you use an optional 4th screw or use the 3m tape which sucks . So I recommend drilling the 4th however they look good . We will see how they hold up.

Delic,

Did you have to take the tires off to drill the 4th hole. This is what I like about the WeatherTech's. No tire removal necessary. Not that I can't do it, but I'm LAZY !!

Husky’s on both of our Rams and have used them for the last six years. Zero issues and a good fit. No issues with the car wash or build up behind the guards. I’ve never taken the tires off to install them as they use the factory screws. As for the one or two holes further inside the wheel well, I always use a butane torch or lighter, a pair of pliers and a nail or long screw. Holding the screw with the rubber handles pliers, get the screw red hot and then push it through the plastic wheel well liner thus melting your pilot holes...works like a charm in tight spaces.

The Husky splash guards are perfect. They match perfectly, install easily, and look and work great. You would have to look long and hard to find a better set of mud flaps/splash guards.

I installed all four without having to remove any wheels. This includes the screw for the back section. The screw is required, the included 3M tape cannot properly adhere to the slippery plastic the liner is made of. I don't know why they even include it.

For the front wheels, simply turn the wheel to the right when working on the left side, and to the left when working on the right side. This may be the opposite of what you might think, but it works perfectly.

For the rear, you'll need a right-angle drill. If you don't already own one, you should, they come in very handy for things like this. I have an old Milwaukee right-angle drill that I couldn't be without. Well worth the investment. Always select a right-angle drill that has the minimum amount of required clearance.

Husky products over weathertech all day long. Mats, or flaps. Can't beat Husky

I found this out for myself. I always purchased Weathertech before. They made decent products. Then I read about Husky on forums and thought I'd give them a try. They make much better products. Better materials, better fit, and better looks IMO.

I went with the Mopar mudflats because they were the only ones that worked on my truck. My truck didn't come with rear wheel well liners so Weathertech and Husky didn't work.

Of course, I now have put Rear wheel well liners on. Lol

Just installed Weather Tech full set on my 2021. chose Weather Tech because more square at the bottom, as Husky are rounded at corners. Just my preference. Had Husky on my 2018 Eco, just totaled it last month. Both are good and easy install.

Hal,

On the bottom-most hole, I have one of those factory plastic push-pins. Did you remove the pin and use the metal clip/screw Husky provided or just put in the new screw. Just wondering what you did and if it worked well.

My 1500 didn't have any plastic push-pins in that area. I used the metal clip/screw Husky provided. The plastic itself probably would have held the screw well enough, but the metal clip was even stronger.

O.K....TX for that. I think I'll take out the plastic plug and use the new screw and clip.

Used Weather Tec on my new dually. Perfect fit around all the contours front and back.

And the husky's are also Made in USA
