Floormats for Telluride - good options?

I have the Tuxmats as well and I like them. It's soft enough to feel comfortable under your feet but hard enough to protect your floor. My toddler spills her snacks and it's easy to just vacuum the crumbs or wipe away any fluids.
 
Tuxmats arrived quickly and installed! They definitely look better in person than on website. Very easy to install and we based our purchase on feedback from this forum as well as some videos on how nice they clean up after sloshy winters.
Can you upload photos? What color Is your interior and seats? Mine is black with dune brown seats. I also have captain chairs so what about the space between the second and third row. I have always own weather tech liners, in previous vehicle had liners for 15 years no issues. Never heard of tuxmats, look beautiful. snows where I live.
 
Here's some tuxmat pics installed
Love the pictures. I went on the website, but it doesn’t look like there is covering between 2nd and third row, but your pictures show different. Did have special order. And is there a cargo liner version. Can you include the sku # of your purchase, that way I can compare or ask customer service about it. It looks like we have the same trim/interior model.

The picture on their website is not accurate. There is a flap, as you can see in my pics, between the rows. No cargo liner avail that worked for me as wanted one that worked with seats up or down. Sorry, no idea where the info is for the SKU#. Just be sure to order for 7 vs 8 seater version.

Here are a couple interior pictures of our Telluride - one showing the coverage between the captain's chairs. I ordered directly from Tuxmat website. Just make sure you order the 7 row version and you'll be all set. We love them so far. Great snow protection and easy to clean.

If you find someone that recently ordered from Tuxmat, ask them to have their order number validated, it then becomes a discount code for anyone to use. Found this info on a Tesla Forum. I can try calling in my last order and see if it can be activated?

I ordered mats this morning, but couldn’t apply your discount code on the US website, Canadian website took it, but can’t order from there obviously. FYI your discount code took me directly to the Canadian website. Anyways, I just text chatted with customer service about the issue from this morning and BAM! 🎉 refunded $10 to credit card. Amazing customer service, I did provide them with the code you shared And my order #. Again, thanks for sharing. Love this Telly community.
 
I'll let you know if my discount code comes in, thet are super great customer service, they may honor it even after you having placed your order.
I was able to use another member’s referral discount and they refunded the $10 discount. Amazing customer service.

OK I am going to have to weigh in on this. I ordered both the smart liners and also the tuxmats for our new Telly sx/p and after installing both, the smart liners are going back. The Tux mats are just way better looking and have better coverage. When I ordered the tux mats only the first 2 rows were available so I ordered those. I just saw last night that they have all 3 rows in stock now but you can't order just the 3rd row. I quick chat session with them online and boom the 3rd row is on the way and with a discount to boot. Over the years I have had weather tech, Husky, 3-D liners and now smart liners and tux mats. I would rate them on looks, 1- Tux mats, 2- 3-D liners (not sure if they still make them), 3- Weather Tech, Husky, 4- Smart liners. Bottom line is Tux mats are the best looking. Can't comment on durability yet but I have high hopes. They have great customer service, Order the Tux Mats you won't regret it.

That's funny. There's definitely a difference of opinion on these. I can see why this thread has reached 15 pages of comments already. :)

My personal ranking:

1) OEM all-weather mats (for my purposes now, third row down permanently, no kids/dogs) (y)
2) WeatherTechs (will buy the WT 2nd & 3rd row mats when I get my Maligator pups (soon) and some kids (eventually), or let my messy niece and nephew ride in the Telly) (y)
3) Husky Liners (1st and 2nd row are nice, but where are the 3rd rows? C'mon Husky! Get with the program!)

No opinion on the SmartLiners. Years ago, they at least used to be pretty good. Sadly, I heard that they have since moved production completely out of the USA to save on production costs, so hopefully the production and QA/QC haven't totally dipped.

Under no circumstances would I ever buy the (in my opinion) hideously fugly Tuxmats with the awful outer-layer-of-a-basketball texture, which works out fine for everyone. More Tuxmats for y'all! :ROFLMAO:

I agree, I've had mine now for about 3 months and from what I've read on other forums (Tesla site is how I got really excited based upon reviews) they are going to hold up very well. Customer service is simply awesome there, 3rd row was out of stock when I ordered front and mid. They not only charged me just the difference in price for 3rd row package but used my original order to give me a discount. I posted a recently activated discount code image for anyone else to grab up. They have answered my emails within a day every time! Can not praise them enough

Malinois dogs, kids, niece and nephew? You're living dangerously! Lol.

PS I don't like Tuxmats either. They look cheesy to me. :sneaky:

@YAH DEF: It makes me happy to know that another person also doesn't like the look of the Tuxmats :sneaky:

Regarding your first question. Yes indeed, but I'll be getting them in stages:

1) Malinois "Maligator" pups are amazing! This will be soon, within the next couple months. I love them, their high-energy, work ethic, and their powerful bite force. They will be great ranch dogs for when I finally leave the tyranny of 2021 California and enjoy my starter ranch on 280 acres in SD. I'll need some recommendations for dog-proofing my Telly's interior/cargo area. I already know that the plastic is going to take a beating unless I do something about it.

2) Kids: I'd need to find the right future Mother for them first. It's not going to be like the CBS sitcom :ROFLMAO:

3) Niece and nephew: They've already called shotgun and 2nd row in the Telly for a quick ride around the countryside. I only maintain a relationship with my evil sister, who for the past 20+ years has sported what many people have referred to as a "resting bitch face" and whose favorite two words to say to me are "You should...", just to maintain access to my amazing niece and nephew, who are messy but look to me, Uncle Justin, for rare moments of freedom and liberty when not under the watchful eye of their mean helicopter parents. (y)
 
Have you seen the TuxMats in person?

@rbfromma: Yes I have, and I've also regrettably touched them with my fingers to check the texture.

I can understand why some will like them, as everyone's tastes are different, but they get a hard pass from me. (n)

Hilarious! :ROFLMAO: But at least you are basing your opinion on real life and not pictures on a computer.
