So winter is rough on the vehicles here in Michigan. The carpets get trashed by salt and dirty slush etc. The wife has a nice clean and pretty interior now. Why?
Zzman make cleaning carpets easier next winter. Place newspapers underneath the car mats and change out the wet newspapers once a week. Salt stains will be greatly reduced and you'll possibly be happier ;-)

We have enough transplants as it is.
Haha I welcome you here. It would be nice to have a transplant here that actually speaks English
Really, I was just trying to " stir the pot".
Northerners aren't near as bad as Californians.
They have ruined their state and seem intent on getting the rest of them also.
Austin is already a lost cause.
Carpet samples are about $1 each at Menards and carpet stores will often give them to you free if you ask. They get thousands of them per year. I never vacuum my vehicles, just toss the dirty carpet samples out and put in new ones..not worth dragging out my shop vac since carpet samples are so cheap. I do not care what color the samples are or even if they match. They get get dirty I toss them and put in new ones.

Well she had rubber floor mats in on top of the regular floor mats. Not really sure how the carpet got as bad as it did.
more water than rubber mats could hold...
or
lots of snow on boots and it kind of gets behind/under the rubber mats...
or
something with the way she gets in the car...the way she put her feet around before pressing any pedal...
Do they slide around? (safety hazard!)
I had to extract the carpet mats from under the rubber mats (double stacking) on my Mazda5, because I consider it dangerous because of movement/sliding....
