When I see Yosemite Sam, I recollect watching those cartoons on TV when this guy got in all sorts of trouble. When I was in high school, Yosemite Sam mud flaps were so popular. Well, many Americans, just like me, still love Sammy Sam. If you are one of us, you may be interested in getting a pair of nice Yosemite Sam mud flaps for your car, truck or SUV.

So, what are the best Yosemite Sam back off splash guards?

Well, the word ‘best’ may mean different things for different people. To me, the best mud guards regardless of the picture they have have certain features that matter for me.

◉ Good splash guards are easy to install. You do not need a body shop with all their tools to get a pair of mud flaps installed. Besides, you definitely do not want to spend the whole weekend sitting under your vehicle to finally get your splash guards installed.

◉ The best mud flaps are flexible yet sturdy. So, you need a combination of these 2 features to get the right mud flaps for your vehicle. When the mud flaps are too soft, they do not do the job. When the mud flaps are too sturdy, they will touch the road debris, especially when you go off-road, and there is a chance to damage your investment.

◉ Quality mud flaps have quality paint, so that Yosemite Sam won’t fade with time.

◉ The best mud flaps can be easily trimmed and/or adjusted for perfect fit. Otherwise, you will either have a hard time installing them, or they will not look right after all.

◉ And the last one. Yosemite Sam mud flaps do not have to break the bank.

Now, let us take a look at the splash guards that are available today. We have picked only the mud flaps that we consider good enough and that meet the criteria above.
