hmmm...vinyl or carpet?

Hey guys - alright, I currently have brown vinyl floors, with the brown and tan interior. I posted a thread a while back about how i should go about changing the color of my interior without looking like a complete jerkoff with spray paint...Nobody answered...haha. So, I found a roll of carpet for $20 at the local Benny's, and I was wondering if I should stick with the vinyl I have, or buy the carpet and lay it in there?? Any advice would be awesome at this point, I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out what to do! Thanks!

carpet is more visually appealing, but also gets dirtier easier and is harder to clean.

and house carpet in vehicles looks FUGLY.

Leave the interior alone and stick with the vinyl.

Drink a beer and quit pulling your hair out over something silly.

Hahaha I've already had too many celebratory beers becuase the damn thing's finally running and on the road! Too much beer makes me think about the stupid stuff. It's not house carpet either, it's automotive carpet.

Well quit worrying about the dang carpet.

If I could have gotten my new Tundra with a vinyl floor I would have. Carpet just has to be cleaned...or covered up with Husky Liners.

Those pics are pre-lift, I'll get those up soon. I'm also saving up for tubing and flomasters to do dual stacks behind the cab. Any thoughts on that?

Eventually I'm going to bedliner or POR my interior then cover it with vinyl for road noise.

Nice, I considered the rhino liner or something of the sorts, but it's pretty expensive and holds the dirt a little TOO much for me. I work in a sand pit, I don't know how much I'd like it.
