    cargo mat/protector for sliding cargo deck

    this is more of what I was thinking of - but the canvas is interesting - just depends on how easy it is to take out and clean. Like I said, mainly dealing with sand, but a little mud from camping trips

    cargo mat/protector for sliding cargo deck

    Just got my 2019 SR5 with the rear cargo sliding deck. Does anyone have any sort of weather proof cargo mat? We do a lot of beach trips and trying to figure out a way to avoid getting a bunch of sand in the back. thanks!
