Late to the party, but my experience with the expensive brands has been pretty disappointing lately. I had major fitment issues with the premium options that cost double your budget.

• Husky Liners WeatherBeater Floor Mats are more flexible and dont leave gaps like the stiffer ones.
• Vailge Dog Seat Cover for Back Seat handles mud better than the pricey Subaru one which stained immediately for me. Save your cash for the trip.

TuxMat All-Weather Car Mats cover way more carpet than WeatherTech FloorLiner HP for pet hair. TuxMats clean up easily, and the Subaru OEM Pet-Friendly Padded Seat Protector fits way better than hammocks.

> I need to order them basically right now Be careful with those shipping windows. Are you looking for something permanent or just a temporary cover? I once ordered mats that arrived late and didnt even fit the floor bolts.

i saw your post and it reminded me so much of my first trip out. i was terrified of ruining the new car smell lol. i actually went with SMARTLINER All-Weather Custom Fit Floor Mats and i have zero complaints. they fit perfectly and dont move an inch which was really important to me for safety reasons. they handled a whole weekend of muddy boots without a single drop hitting the actual carpet. for my dog, i bought the Active Pets Dog Car Seat Cover for Back Seat on a whim and its been a lifesaver. it has these little anchors that keep it from sliding around, so i dont have to worry about my pup slipping when i hit the brakes. plus it was way under budget compared to the dealership stuff. definitely keeps the mud contained and honestly its just nice not having to panic every time the dog gets back in the car.
