OEM and Redline mats are no longer available. I think you could still get Lloyd’s Mats.

The problem is, that if someone were to make 'Marauder' floor mats in any quantity (meaning the price wouldn't be too expensive because of volume production)....
FORD will come after them for copyright infringement and royalties.
Even though FORD will never market any more Marauder stuff.

Redlines supplier closed their doors at the same time redline got an order from ford to stop using the name Marauder.

They’re local to me, I even tried the bag of cash way.
That’s when they told me why they couldn’t even do that.
They did call me 6 months later because they found a set when they were cleaning the storage room :2thumbs:

Well i guess they need to keep searching for more in the said storage room, maybe Mr Marauder can buy them?

Are you looking specifically for "Marauder" mats, or just good mats? Carpet only?

Joe found you can get Weather Tech mats for a Lincoln and cut the middle out to fit the Marauder.

I doubt you'll find anybody making "Marauder" mats specifically because of the licensing.

I found a great mat maker in Alabama and sent them my Redline mats to copy.......they did and submitted a set to Ford for approval and Ford shot 'em down.......NO GO!!:shake::argue:

Sometimes I wonder how Ford stays in bidness??:confused:

When gas goes back up to $4.00+/gal....and it will,
the "I need a 4x4 crew cab SuperDuty to drive my lone azz to work while looking cool" crowd will abandon trucks and FORD will be left with only the Mustang and NO sedans to offer.

I sell Fords and the luxury truck market is not aimed at the snowflake millennial generation, its older men based on what I move. With that said, why not have nice trucks to compete in the luxury market? The demand is there for sure. I enjoyed my F-150 Limited because it looked great, rode beautifully and I could haul crap when I needed it. The "a truck is a tool for work" line is a load of BS. Work trucks are still available and just because one person doesn't see the value or can't afford it doesn't mean there isn't an ass for the seat. Just my observations from the guy that moves the metal.
