Im so tired of stuff sliding around in the back of my Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross every single time I turn a corner. Honestly fed up with the cheap mat that came with it because everything just flies everywhere and now my trunk liner is getting all scratched up.
I have a huge move to Austin happening this Friday and I need to get organized fast. My budget is like $200 max. What are the actually good cargo accessories that actually fit this weird trunk shape?
I really need something that keeps my groceries and small boxes from slamming into the hatch...
Regarding what #1 said about liners, I find stuff still shifts on the surface. When I moved last year, I had a box of glass jars that kept sliding around. I grabbed the Starling's Car Trunk Organizer Adjustable Straps and it actually stayed put. You just hook it into the floor anchors and it keeps your boxes from slamming the hatch. Decent, safe option for that weird trunk space.
To add to the point above: the previous suggestions are solid but for a big move like your trip to Austin, you really gotta think about load stability for safety reasons. If heavy boxes shift during a sudden stop on the highway, it can actually mess with your handling. I looked at a few setups recently that might fit your budget.
My current setup actually started when I moved last year. Tbh I realized the floor wasnt the only problem, everything was sliding into the side panels too. What I learned:
In my experience, the only way to stop that sliding is a high-walled tray. I've tried many, but the WeatherTech Cargo Liner for Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross 2018-2024 is basically the gold standard for that weird trunk shape. It actually grips your gear. Pair it with an Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Parts Eclipse Cross Cargo Net and you're set. Skip the cheap universal nets tho, they never stay tight enough.
