CBears Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 My 22 F-250 will spend most of her life in my garage and will hopefully be with us for a very long time. She will not be a daily driver but rather a travel vehicle for family and a travel trailer. When she is parked at a campsite for days at a time, I'd like to have the windows blocked so the sun isn't continually beating in on the interior and also so what is inside the truck isn't readily viewable. I thought about window tint but I am getting older and I'm not wanting anything making the windows darker. The clear window tint still lets people look inside obviously. I think I've settled on some custom fit window shades that are made specifically for the F-250. I've been looking at the Weather Tech sun shades for a few days. The reviews are mostly alright but several are less than glowing. While they aren't horribly expensive, they aren't cheap either. $154 for the set with storage bags currently. Does anyone have any experience with these or others? Anyone made their own successfully? Any other ideas/options? If this is talked about elsewhere on the forum, my apologies. I did a search and didn't come up with anything. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinerjoe Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 CBears, I have had the Weathertech sun shade for my 2016 F150 CC, and it has worked great. So much so that when I get my 350 CC, I’ll see if I can use them with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjrrtheis Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I have the Weather Tech sun shade kits on all my vehicles. The fit extremely well, and the quality is outstanding. I would recommend them to anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, the Line-X dealer I'm going to for my bed liner and tonneau cover is a WeatherTech dealer also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a windshield shade for my 2022 F350. I'm still waiting for it to get built....Ordered on 10/25/21. However, I also have one for our 2021 Toyota Highlander and love how it fits. Works good for the Arizona summer heat Edited February 2, 2022 by Havasu Guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevens7.3 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I've got the full kit for my '22, fit is amazing, they also have a shiny side for heat and a black side for the winter time. Yes it can be a PITA but keeping the sun off the seats is big for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doyall Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I have the CoverCraft UVS100 Custom Sunscreen in my truck and the wife's Grand Cherokee. Moderately priced, well constructed and effective but as a fold-up it is a bit cumbersome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doyall Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Missed that you were looking for entire vehicle. Sorry. Not sure CoverCraft has them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
