Mud flaps that do something are standard on better cars. Better does not mean more expensive. Better is a car designed by engineers; not accountants. My every Honda came with flaps where necessary and standard.

Floor mats should never move about. Earlier mats had points that embed in the carpet. Newer mats attach to two posts located where the mat sits under the seat.

Many crappy car mats do not completely cover the floor. Sometimes I would buy black rubber 'truck' mats. Honda's had so much leg room that car mats were never large enough. A good car mat completely covers the rug and may roll up inches on each side. Simply remove the mat so that all leaves and dirt leave the car. No vacuum necessary. All environments - especially rain or snow - deposit dirt into a car. Any car mat that moves around - even 40 years ago - was completely defective.
