So it's not like in the Super Duty where the underseat storage lays flat? I've ordered a '24 base Raptor. If the under seat storage doesn't fold flat that may be a deal breaker for me.
It folds down but it sticks up about an inch and is hard plastic. So you end up with about 70% mat and 30% raised area of hard plastic. The large flat area with the large rubber mat I had in my Gen 2 was better/easier for my dogs to ride on.

Damn - likely will be the case whether I get into a ‘24 Raptor or back into an SD Tremor.

I took mine out. It is here in central California if anyone wants it.

I found this rear mat on Amazon. I really like it.

Did you cut the mounting bolts off or were you able to back them out??

No it does not there is a slight jump from the rear storage folded down. Unless you get a model without rear storage…

I just backed them out with visegrips and put the nut back on them.

My old stuff is for sale if anyone wants it.

Thank you I’m hoping I can find this on Amazon‘s canada site. I plan on removing mine also and was looking for exactly something like this.

Nice work OP.
I never use mine. It’s always folded flat. And I’ve never seen an issue with my dogs back there because if it. Maybe I’m just oblivious.

The large flat area works so much better for me. The cooler sits flat secure. Then that large area works great when shopping and transporting stuff. The bed area if plumb full so I I need to haul anything else it's in the back seat or to top of the Dimondback cover.
