Congrats, terp, on the new ride and welcome aboard.

Do a search for floor mats and you will find some great info on mats and liners for back.

Congratz on the new ride!

I have the Weathertech liner for the back of my GL. I have 3 Labrador retrievers who ride back there & the Weathertech has held up very well.

I too have the weathertech liners. Nope, it's two pieces. A small one that fits behind the 3rd row when its up, and a larger one that goes over the seats when they're down.
