    I have a cheaper set of neoprene seat covers and they make me feel too sweaty and stuck to them through all the warmer months. That's my biggest turn off from upgrading to wet okoles. That and price. I've seen some sort of canvas type ones that are a custom fit and I feel like I'd like those more.. but idk

    Yeah.
    I just did the back row with CalTrend I think it was -- mainly for the dog. Considered Wet Okole, but since it was mainly for the dog I figured I'd just go with the cheapest custom-fits you can find. I tried a couple of bench covers, but they don't fit or stick well and make it tough to get to stuff under the seats. I keep cargo straps and my tent rods under there.

    FWIW, the 2nd gen covers work on 3rd gen rear seats, at least the bottom part. I haven't tried the backs yet.

    Still waiting on WeatherTech to release the 2018 digital fits . . . I have a set of 2nd gen that I will sell cheap if anyone needs them (were in a 2012 with the twist knobs).

    Posted this locally but no takers yet, I have my home-built tent rack for a 2nd gen that needs a new home. If any of you need one and are heading down to NW Arkansas, let me know.

    When I first built it:

    I sell cover craft and they don't look nearly as nice or form fitting as the wet okole.

    I’ve hit a traffic jam at four in the morning on a Sunday in St. Louis. “Excellent driving skills” are not at the top of your average St. Louis residents resume.

    Hey!! I'm moving back to the STL area!!! Just got notified today that I'll be moving at the end of summer.

    Lookin forward to exploring the area more this time around. Last time I was there, I had sold my 2nd gen shortly after moving there and I kicked myself for a long time afterwards. Not this time! Also, I hope that I will be around much longer than I was last time. I was stationed there a little over 2 years, but I was only around for about a year of it.

    Need me to bring any of those Wet Oakels with me from HI? :p
