Got my weather tech mats today I'm not impressed. My old husky liners had knobs on the bottom to hold them in place and these are perfectly smooth. Will these mats move around?

Mine came with a screw in anchor for the drivers side. This is my 3rd vehicle with them and the first that had the anchor. They don't move around. Passenger side has no anchor and of doesn't budge either. I'd never buy anything else.

2 of my vheicles have the hooks (camaro and sienna) and my truck doesnt. None of them move around.

I have the Husky "Weather beater" mats in my 2014. The driver side mat has the 2 holes that snap over the factory spot. Fit's like a glove. Only thing I don't like is they hang past the door still - and cover up the nice decorative "All Terrain" piece. But my understanding is the weathertech does the same?

 

I guess they have to do this otherwise dirt will get in the crease between mat and carpet.

I've noticed when shorter people are getting in they tend to kick them around. But they never move on me.

 

Then stop dating short girls

Driver's side included velco-circle-things hold mats well.

However the passenger side mats will move, especially if a person uses their feet to scoot them themselves up in the seats after slouching. I'd suggest a DIY mounting job if you don't want this to happen.

I got a set of these. Not much to go on just yet, but I think I am more impressed with the back row than the front. I have the bench seat and hoped there would be something that went all the way across. That would solve a lot of the moving issue as well as giving better coverage.

I have the WeatherTech mats, front and back. The drivers front has divets in it with velcro stick, to stick to the floor of the truck. My complaint is the same AT, the mats cover up the awesome Z71 step in decal!

I test fit the weathertech mats today. The back was horrible to me because it slid around like crazy without the knobbies. I put in the front passenger and didnt even make it to the driver. My husky liners in the 08 were much better quality rubber with more thickness. Also, I do not like the design for stuff to flow out, once you are in and things start to melt I do not want my doors getting dirty with run off. The husky liner contains everything. I'll be sending the weathertech mats back ASAP and getting husky liners ASAP.

Put weathertec front and rear mats in the 2014 Silverado LTZ about a week ago. They are exactly what I'd expected and am very pleased. The two piece anchor hold down is a little weird, but it works just fine.

I could spill a Mcdonalds extra large drink on the floor and nothing would get on the carpet.....got to love that.

 

Mostly I didn't want muddy boots messing up the cartpet and these mats will do the job well. The mats are pricey but great IMO.

      New or used

      Certainly as the new model year comes along and that may mean a new refreshed model such as for example the upcoming 2027 half tons and lets just say for arguments sake that current year trucks are in decent supply on the new lot and its not guaranteed but some years and depending on the current economic state that buyers may turn their nose up at the so called old stock/old model and want the "new new" shiny object. When those stars align and in this case GM corporate puts out a great discount on what is becoming the old stock as well as dealers willing to deal to get that inventory off the lot, that's when it would be easier to deal as long as, as it was pointed out that your willing to take what is there for choice of inventory in an area that makes sense to you shopping wise. What you don't get deals on or typically so is the incoming new toy in the showroom, that is where if they don't have much inventory of the new model year and customers that are willing to pay to beat the Joneses and will pay top dollar for it just because. Also sometimes there is that vehicle that few are interested in for whatever reason in how its equipped that becomes two years old and they really want to get rid of that vehicle. New in all cases and warranty the same typically although plan on changing that battery out on the older used one, lot rot of batteries with todays vehicles that draw power constantly.    I too was just too leery about buying a newer used truck as I know how all too many seem to treat their vehicle maintenance wise and up here in Canada there wasn't the used market to choose from like one would assume because of all the bull crap going on with under a year old trucks and under certain mileage being bought up by USA brokers and being hauled/driven south to be sold in the sates so the used price was too demanding here. Also a certain insurance coverage I wanted was only available on a new truck at time of purchase and not even a so called new demo on a lot could have that no depreciation loss coverage. I made the best deal I could on a truck I personally chose for options on an order so they knew it was most likely sold before it ever hit their lot so no lot interest charges for the dealer to swallow. I also wanted a new vehicle so that I could plaster the crap out of it underneath with fluid film and see if that will help slow down the rust issues we have here due to the crap they spread on the winter roads.

      2026 Silverado 2500 Surround Vision Recording?

      By newdude · Posted

      Sure...but there is no "update" to be had.  GM has not issued any support for this.

      You mean it's not supported yet in the trucks. The hardware is certainly there. The software just needs updated.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      Is the carbon pro bed still a thing? I figured it was one of those things that quietly disappeared from low take rate.   I thought Chevrolet tried adding it too...   Minimal.   Despite all the 'all new' versions since GMT-800, lots of parts still swap from generation to generation.   I've seen a bunch of GMT-800s with a K2 rear bumper on them.

      We still haven't seen the GMC's. I expect the Chevys to more orr less match the Fords, but with no all aluminum body and simple SBC, be significantly more affordable. I'm hoping GMC offers the 6.7 engine and lays it all out on the line. My main question? More premium GMC's already use composite leads out back. Does Chevy get any? What other frame/suspension changes?
