Strafzettel

What are other dog owners doing to protect the exterior and interior of their EQS SUV's? My current GLS has MB-Tex and the seats and door panels are fairly easy to clean. For the dog slobber on the door paint (from dogs sticking their heads out) I have to use polish and it's a pain in the bu.. to clean.
I'm getting an EQS in a few days and I'm worried about the interior being leather and less forgiving than MB-Tex. Has anyone tried using leather shoe protection spray? Any seat/door covers that fit well in the EQS? I always flip the backseats down and turn my SUV into a two seater with dogs

Or transport the dog in a crate, which is actually much safer both for dog and humans.

Sorry, but as someone who bred and transported show dogs back in my youth, couldn't help it.

I used crates only for potty training and then got rid of them, the dogs hated them.

I would worry about the alcantara-like material on the upper doors and armrests. Anyone find a good product to clean this material?

That's exactly what I was thinking. I'll try to wrap the door panels with clear foil and the blue tape that you'd usually use for painting

Love my dog, but he always travels in his own "1st Class" compartment. We're both happy that way

When we still had our CTS with the sunroof, our golden would nuzzle at it until we opened it. Then he would stand on the console, and stick his head up through the sunroof out into the fresh air of the slipstream.
Just about everyone who saw the spectacle was amazed.

I recall a New Yorker cartoon -- a dog is in a dealer's showroom posing as a buyer, and asks "Do you have any models without windshields?"
