Weird carpet won't vacuum well, any tips?

I don’t like the carpet in my mobile home, and it’s been there for over 10 years…I don’t know what type of carpet it is, but it has little pattern grooves…not berber. I have a good vacuum and it has never had any problem before with suction or anything, but on this carpet it just doesn’t vacuum well at all. Anything on the floor gets pushed into the grooves and won’t pick up unless I get down and use the hose. Until I can afford new carpet, is there any easier way to vacuum this type of carpet. My vacuum has different settings and with this carpet I’ve been using low/hardwood setting because it’s been so worn down over the years…would it be better to use a higher carpet setting or what?

I’m going on a cleaning binge when I get home from work, and that carpet really irks me when I vacuum it…I just wanted to know if there’s a better way or if I’m just gonna have to deal with it until I can replace it. Thanks!
