So how many of you decided to get rid of the floor mats..?
.. just to lose weight of the car and get more lighter..?
It's not a must equipment and the floor looks just as nice without it..
and on the cleaning issue, people use vacuum machines so it's not a problem..
I figure it could become unneccessary weight to some people, along with other things, if you are dieting the car/

Oh I did that. I also don't wear underwear, socks or put on deodorant when I drive. It's also why I shaved my head (and other more private areas, as well). Saves LOTS of weight.

This sounds like our old friend redwhiteblue, who of course, was banned 7 times on this forum under multiple names. Hahahaha!
Sorry, couldn't resist. He used to write about stuff like this when it came to shedding weight on his car.
PS - I drive naked to help my car go faster.
