PVC Floor Mats for your truck - a different approach!

I wanted some noise and heat insulation inside the cab and a practical and durable floor covering. In the spirit of the budget rat truck build, I use some materials I found in my shed - roof membrane and PVC Floor tiles!

How many viewers have noticed that Div replies to everyone that comments. This is RARE and admirable. Thank Div.

I believe it's just common decency brother. Especially when questions are asked. I am a little concerned that I won't be able to do it if there are too many comments but I will give it my best shot!😁
