Roll your windows up. Should minimize the amount of water getting inside.

Is this rain problem exclusive to F150 owners?

Not sure why the model is relevant. But yes, weathertech works great.

I prefer Husky to Weathertech and I've had both. The Husky are thicker and seem more durable.

Doesn't Ford make them? I'm sure they're more expensive than aftermarket, but it's worth it IMO considering what a nuisance an ill-fitting rubber mat can be

just thought maybe there was a model-specific mat for the 150 better than weathertechs which is why i noted the model.

WT has been great to me but I think you could save the money and get the Huskey

Mine came with the Ford rubber mats and they sucked compared to the aftermarket liners. I pulled them out.
