Same here. When I bought my Barracuda 20 years ago it didn't have a trunk mat so I bought one. A couple of weeks after putting it in the trunk I lifted a corner up and the floor was wet. That mat has been rolled up on a shelf since then.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
