Husker Fan Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Has anyone purchased the Lincoln Aviator Floor Liners? If yes, how do they compare to Weather Tech? Thank you in advance and Happy Holidays!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfischetti Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I had a Aviator loaner that them. They were pretty nice. They were more rubbery than the plasticy weatherTech ones that I have for my Audi. I’ll probably get them for my Aviator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big_dude_nepa Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I have had both WeatherTech ones in other new vehicles and ordered the Aviator ones with my new Reserve II. I like the Aviator ones because they are “for the Aviator”, it has a nice pattern to them with the “Aviator” name on them. They do completely cover the front floor to include the side of the seat/door sill area. They are a flexible rubbery material versus hard plastic WT type. I like the Aviator ones best. I am considering getting the Aviator cargo mat from Lincoln too. Atm I am using my WT one from the 2018 Explorer I had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lincoln has two matching cargo liners... behind second row and behind third row. The also have third row floor liners... with or without center console. I agree the Lincoln liners are superior to WT... I have WTs for all three rows and both lengths of cargo liners for my 09 Expedition and hate the hard plastic and hard to clean rough texture. I have Husky Liners X-Act Contours in the F150 Limited and love them... way more flexible and very rich looking. The WTs have a cheap look and feel by comparison. The only problem with X-Act Contours is the limited number of vehicle fitments available. Edited March 7, 2020 by CoolScoop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_dude_nepa Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I have my third row folded down since day one hence use the larger cargo configuration all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rampagex7 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 My Aviator was supposed to come with the OEM Lincoln liners but for some reason dealer misplaced them at time of delivery and didn't have any more in stock so they ordered me a complimentary full set of Weathertechs. A week later they found my OEM liners and gave them to me as well, so I actually have both sets. I have always liked Weathertechs and would normally not put anything else in a car, but having now had both sets I agree with CoolScoop the Lincoln ones are better. If anyone that wants to see the difference see the photos below. The main advantage of the OEM liners is the driver side mat, which extends down about 4" below the seat rail to nicely protect the carpeting right beside the door sill which in my experience always gets hit with salt stains in the winter from snow and other crap on your boots. The OEM liner also comes up higher a couple inches to protect the driver's footrest. See the photo below to see a comparison with the WT placed on top of the OEM liner. As for the cargo area, I give advantage to WT vs OEM. The WT cargo liner has much larger lip at the perimeter to protect against spills and mine also covers the 3rd row seat which is a bonus because I hardly use them. (see photos below) I'm sure you can get a bigger OEM cargo liner to cover the 3rd row as well but if it is the same design as the smaller one, I still say WT cargo liner is better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithras Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Has anyone ever tried the quilted ones you see advertized on facebook/IG all the time? With 10 and 6 year old boys, I feel like sometimes I should just have a tarp in the back seat... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do either WT or OEM fold to allow use of when 3rd row is up/down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately neither of them fold but the WT one is pliable enough that in a pinch where I needed to use the 3rd row I was able to kind of bend/roll it upward to allow the 3rd row seats to come up. The OEM mat that came with mine only covers the small cargo area behind the 3rd row so it works perfectly to use with the 3rd row up. That's why I actually have both the WT and OEM cargo mats so I used the WT 90% of time as my main mat with 3rd row down and on the odd occasion I need to use the 3rd row I take my WT mat out and replace with OEM mat.

This could be what you might want if folding the cargo liner with the 3rd row seats is a must. https://www.huskyliners.com/WeatherBeater-Floor-Mats/2021/lincoln/aviator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
