Turns out that Weathertech only makes the deflectors for the front doors and not for the back doors and am looking around at different in-channel brands available. I'll keep you up to date.

2019 XLT FX4
The FX4's come with both the cloth and the all weather mats. It was nice to be able to swap them when rainy season / winter started.

Just purchased Husky, after using Weathertech in the old vehicle. Husky was a bit more expensive.
I like them, and probably apart from the differences noted in this thread, I don't think you can go wrong with either ones.

Got the Husky's installed this past weekend. Have to say, SO MUCH NICER THAN WEATHER TECH. I've been a fan of theirs for years, but the husky's are softer and look nicer. They cover every square inch of floor space. More expensive, definitely, but also a better approach. The weathertechs had a one piece second/third row. The husky's are two pieces. Very pleased.
Do you have the captain chairs in the middle? Can you post a pic of the 2nd/3rd if you do?
Strange. I've got an '18 Limited (regular, non-Max) and purchased the WT cargo mat for the trunk space behind the 2nd row seating. I've had the opposite experience with the WT mat.
Because the WT mat lacks anything tacky or textured on the bottom, it's constantly sliding around when we have cargo on top of it (which is most of the time) and usually it works its way toward the liftgate as described above. This is expescially notieable when trying to move heavery cargo around by sliding it on the mat - the mat comes with the cargo.
Though it's only interefered with liftgate operation a handful of times, it's still annoying and I'm constantly trying to push it back forward toward the seatbacks. I can't understand why WT (or any mat mfr for that matter) wouldn't put something grippy on the bottom to prevent this sort of thing.
For what it's worth, the specific WT mat I purchased has part no 401093.

Looking at the ford all weathers, it looks like the third row doesn’t cover the pass through to it.
thinking about the fords and then getting a husky or weather tech third row. Sounds like I need to go husky if I want to do that if the WTs are connected to the second row.
do I have that right or does the product line make a difference.

From what I last remember the weather tech is a one piece 2nd and 3rd where the husky (xact for sure, as it's what I have) is a 2 piece.

Ok thanks.
Ordered the husky for the third row since it’s critical and I want it here before the truck arrives. Might just call these guys and tell them to toss a ford set in before it leaves. Think I’ll give that a run and add husky or weather techs upfront later.

Is there a gap or bubbling up on the piece where the 2nd and 3rd rows overlap?

The two picec Husky design has an overlap approach. I have seen there the third row overlaps the second row (How I have mine) and also where the second row overlaps the third row. I felt the first way fit flatter also allows you to sweep the third row onto the second row easier.

I use mats primarily to keep the carpet from getting wet. The hight of the lip around the edges can determine whether your carpet gets soaked or contained on the mat that can be poured out. Melting snow, 64oz coke, forget to plug a ice chest, among other accidents. The WeatherTech has almost no lip on the tailgate side. I left dumb bells on that end for a few days and it helped. The picture showing two mats is my wife’s GX 460 the other is from my new FX4. Maxliner changed their name to Smart Liner. I’ve had Husky, they may be the best (stiffest) but I haven’t seen the Expedition model.

Sixteen year old Husky in my hunting truck. Bought all three rows along with my Armada in 2004. Dirty but good as new.

That weather tech third row in the pic looks like the ford one on the accessories website. Does the tab extend all the way up to the second row? I order the husky third row because it seemed to go all the way up. Thinking my kid will dirty that pass through carpet fast without coverage.
The ford one only lists for 75 bucks. 5e husky was 128 so if the area is covered I’ll go with ford.

The pics above look like they are from a 2nd row bench seat, non-MAX configuration. I could be wrong tho... I didn't look up the part numbers.
Here's a post I made earlier in this thread about the 2nd/3rd row overlap. I believe ours is currently setup like the 2nd pic where the 3rd row is tucked under the 2nd. Either way seems to work tho.
Also, this is the best pic I could get of the rear liner to show how far up the edges it goes (without opening my garage/hatch and risking waking up my kids/wife ).
