It was pulled to pull the carpet out. The seats were just as bad. I got both seats out now. I pulled the carpet, and took it to the car wash and sprayed it out. It needs more cleaning but it got to cold last night and froze all up again... Saturday I plan to clean out the rest of it.

My mounty was used as the primary family mobile for about 2 years. With three kids it has its share of stains on the carpet when the warm weather rolls aroumd I will be gutting her and doing the same. Also going to add soud deadener at the same time.

I've got a story that can explain all of that.
This morning on the M4, I looked over to my right and there was a Woman In a brand new Audi Doing 65 mph. With her face up next to her rear view mirror, putting on her eyeliner. I looked away for a couple seconds...
to continue shaving. And when I looked back she was halfway over in my lane, still working on that makeup. As a man, I don't scare easily. But she scared me so much; I dropped my electric shaver. Which knocked the donut Out of my other hand. In all the confusion of trying to straighten out the car using my knees against the steering wheel, It knocked my Mobile Phone away from my ear which fell into the coffee between my legs! splashed, And burned Big Peter and the Twins, Ruined the damn phone, Soaked my trousers, And disconnected an important call. Damn women drivers!
IZ--Its powdered sugar from the doughnut.

And here I thought it might be the John DeLorean special version of a Ranger...

Dude, you should've seen the green 97 f-150 when we got it back from my brother... it has the vinyl floor and even with that, we almost had to replace it. My dad and I spent a day or so cleaning it out... there was crayon drawing all over teh seats and windows (who lets their kids do that???), food remnants all over the place, even some cups of milk that had been left behind and forgotten about and turned solid and some other places where soda and other liquids had leaked and never been cleaned up... it was absolutely nasty, smelled terrible, and we couldn't believe someone who had been raised in the same family could let a vehicle go to such crap so quickly.
We scrubbed and hosed that vinyl floor and the seats several times... there are still some remnants that we couldn't get clean.

Yeah the green one I have it was worse then this one. It was owned by a smoker who just thought the whole thing was an ash tray.
My work F350 is a 2001 and it's been smoked in since new. I cleaned the headliner with some zep window cleaner and when I was doing it you could see brown headliner and grey headliner. It was grey stock.

Well it was warm enough today to get that carpet somewhat clean. I set it up on two saw horses and just sprayed it with cleaner and scrubbed and scrubbed. Then I sprayed it out with the hose it was just pouring out brown. I got it as much as I could and now it's going back in Sunday if it warms up enough, and dries out.

My gf's mom's 2005...so my gf thinks truck is like this gross and nasty, there is a red streak stain running fron the third row to the second then out of the door. I just dont understand, she blames it on...children as well but we have a 1991 which we owed from the day it came out. my brother and I were children at the t iu me but the only stain or anything like this in that car is from when a coke can exploded after freezing overnight. I will make sure my car stays clean even if that means never letting anyone eat or drink in my car.

I like to poop in mine. That's why I went with vinyl floors in the Ranger.
yes I'm drunk.
