All Terrain Package Cooled Seats. WHY NOT GM??????

HammerDownProductions · July 17, 2017

Ok I have online built and talked to numerous dealerships and there does not seem to be a way to get a 3/4 ton GMC SLT trim ALL TERRAIN package with Cooled seating. WHY THE HELL NOT. I mean it says jet black "perforated" with red piping. This is the only thing that is keeping me from pulling the trigger on one. I work in the hot sun and drive long hours. That would be one hell of a option for me. Yeah i could go with a standard SLT package but I really like the ALL TERRAIN painted bumpers, grill and overall look. Anybody know if there is a work around on this issue??????????????

The perforated refers to the leather seat texture, not the plumbing for ventilation.

The only way around it is to get a Denali which includes color coded bumpers and Ventilated seats. (they are not cooled)

Just extra cost that I didn't want. Guess I'll have to start looking at the chevy custom sport package.

Cant remember which package included the vented seats, but my LTZ has it... could be the LTZ Plus Package... might be a stand-alone option

SLT/LTZ/High Country/Denali are all available with ventilated seats.

I have questioned since 2014 when the All-terrain package came out why it could not be had with vented seats.

The All-terrain package package is not considered a high end truck package. Cooled or vented seats are options reserved for high end trucks.

Yeah it seems like this is the only package that doesn't include vented seats unless its the SLE or LT pagkages.

The ALL TERRAIN package is available on the SLE and SLT. SLT is considered higher end but the ALL TERRAIN is just an appearance package. So why not make the Ventilated seats part of the option? Just doesn't make sense to me.

You and me both. Never could figure that out.

So a SLT is available with ventilated seats yet a SLT All-terrain is not, trying to make logic here...

All Terrain and All Terrain X are SLT only on the GMC HD trucks. Looking at the color charts, vented seats are only available SLT with Jet Black, SLT with Dark Ash/Jet Black, and SLT with Cocoa/Dune interiors.

Why not just get an SLT with the vented seats and color match the bumpers, or go for a Denali?

Because the All-terrain has all brushed aluminum interior trim?

The grill is color matched as well...

GM sells color matched grilles and you can buy either the GMC trim pieces or the Chevy Z71 style in a kit....

What makes you think you can buy a GM color matched grill? Show me a part number, I strongly call BS!

You don't seem to be winning in this thread...
