Washout Floors - any reviews?

Since many have had a chance to drive their broncos for a while, does anyone have reviews of the washout floor capability? practicality? rust? etc?

I've had my BD for almost a year and only time the floors came in handy is when a 2l jug of water splilled,just open drains and cleaned out

I use a vacuum.

I vacuum mine out at well to avoid possibly clogging the drains from tree debris. But this past spring it had salt crust and flakes when I lifted my rubber mat. I used a hose to wash it. I didn't spray all crazy in there. Just a light washout, scrub, washout. It drains pretty fast.

Also when I was cleaning the interior I noticed a sticky dried drink spill where my son sits. The floor is designed in a way that some spills are directed into channels that lead it towards the drain. It was an easy clean up.

Overall I think the flooring looks good. It's going to be absolutely great for mud cleanup. The one thing I dislike is the fact that the drain plugs are permanently attached to the floor. Wow nice, you won't lose them... until strap breaks, then there is no easy fix. They are just loose separate drains plugs now. Not a big deal but that's my one dislike.

Got to use mine pretty much right after I took delivery last year. After a visit to the local adult beverage superstore, I had an aluminum can suffer a very small puncture. The box was sitting in the rear floorboard behind the driver's seat. When I got home and opened the back door, I could smell the beer immediately. Cardboard box was soaked through and there was a beer puddle on the floor. Drained it, ran some water, scrubbed with soap and water, and rinsed. Good as new after sitting out in the sun to dry.

It’s spiffy. I see no reason not to get wash out unless it’s a luxury car like a MB.

The one issue I have is the passenger floor mat flaps in the wind like a flag when the door is off. Wish they were a but more secure.

I've only had my BL for a week and have never had a vehicle without carpet so I was concerned that I may not like the rubber floor.

I worried for no reason, I love it!

Hose mine out often. Works great. Haven’t seen any rust in the holes.

You can actually see metal through the holes? I envisioned it as having a rubber grommet not allowing water to get to the floor pan, for the active drains.

I did a pretty extensive photo shoot of the floors way back in October of 2021.
