After seeing the picture I posted on another thread, I decided it was time to clean the rear where Fido hangs out....

Crate or gate?

Crate. (Variocage Double L. I originally got a Variocage Double XXL but decided it was bigger than I needed. Also, the Variocage Double XXL would only fit in the car if the cargo mat was not there. So I sold the Double XXL, bought a Double L.)

Looks like that one fits perfectly...how big is your pooch? Mine is a 95 pound GSD

Two bearded collies. The girl is 40 pounds and the boy is 60. That's why I got the tow hitch on the 2022, to use with the Otto Step for entry and exit without having to leap the whole way, as shown here on my 2004:

Nice...my guy is 11 now so I tote a ramp to help him get out....he still insists on jumping up to get in and does fine.

Back of front seats are plastic....easy to keep clean.

Looks great....I might even have to install mine!

I installed them yesterday with velcro similar to Euro. Should be no issue using the third row, but I did not want them permanently installed. They do cover the access to the armrest storage bins.
Velcro holds well, but I did need to use some glue to ensure a better bond to the protectors.
Another benefit of the protector is that there is far less movement of the cargo tray.

And the purpose of all this is, what?

I got the same car a few weeks ago, love it!

You guys sharing? Who gets it on weekends?

Installed the new Magic Box 2.0 with the new 2.0 remote works great the ELS system sounds fantastic with their EQ app.

Why?
What does it do that your phone doesn't?

You can stream videos, movies concerts, Netflix, YouTube, many other Google apps to your infotainment screen.

OK, I guess I must be getting old. Never once have I wished I could watch a movie, a video, concert, etc on my infotainment screen! I prefer to keep my eyes on the road....and when I watch any of the aforementioned, I prefer to to do it on something a tad bigger than the infotainment screen!
