Question on Husky floor mat


Recommended Posts

Posted

So Im fixing to pull the trigger and buy some Husky floor mats for my 15 Denali in the front and a weather tech for the back. Question on the front, after reading and seeing pictures, I dislike how the mat hangs over the Door seal where it says denali. Is this something I could trim down with an exacto knife or my dremel and then sand it to make it look straight again? Just wasn't sure if this would work with the type material its made out of...

Dremel should work fine but suggest using as-is for awhile before any trimming. FWIW, I put the Husky's down in a brand new truck two weeks ago, it's been snowing and cold since, and the overhang you're referencing keeps any mung off the carpet. I also would recommend the Huskys for rear matt and storage bin under rear seats if you have a crew cab. Much preferred to the Weathertechs I've used in many other vehicles as they are more pliable rubber.

I would get the Husky mat for the rear, too. I have the Weathertech mat. It doesn't lay flat. It curls uo by the doors.

The only thing I found I didn't like about the Husky Weather Beaters, is the area over the wheel well where your left foot would go, doesn't come up high enough for me. I still get water and salt getting under the mat and in the carpet. Easily cleaned up though.

Love my Husky mats. I have the front and rear. They do cover the door sill just a bit, but it seems to serve a purpose as stated above. I would get them and leave them as is for a bit, then decide. But yes you cant go wrong with these mats.

I also like my Husky mats. I didnt like weathertechs in a friends because when they got wet, they got SO damn slippery. Hated it.

Had Husky in both front and rear since the truck was 1 week old. I wouldn't cut it as in the winter water accumulates in it from melting snow on boots and by leaving this it'll just drain outside and leave carpet intact.

Thanks all for the suggestions. The only reason I was looking at weathertech for the back was because I thought I had read that Husky didn't offer a full coverage for the rear seat, which is something I wanted. But after going back and looking I found they do, so problem solved. I won't be cutting it. I don't really have to worry about snow melting etc...in Houston TX its rarely under 30 most of the winter. Snow would be a miracle, although I have seen it before.

Hello all, similar question. Does anyone have the Husky rear liner (not the full coverage one but the smaller version) with an OEM undersea storage? How do they fit together? I am thinking of getting it since it would be easier to take out and clean as opposed to the full coverage that would sit under the box. I know the Husky liner is made to work with Husky's box but am wondering how it looks with the OEM box.

Weathertech all the way. used to use the husky's they had a funny smell when hot in closed car. i switched to weathertech's about 5 trucks ago and never looked back...

 

PS, i have always resold my used weathertech's on ebay for 2/3 the original price and the auctions NEVER last more than a couple hours.. no bs. start out at $.01 buy it now at $XXX.xx and within minutes 10 people bid on them someone clicks buy it now..

 

i doubt the husky's have that kind of want (i could be wrong but check for sold listings on used weathertechs vs husky)

I had whether tech in my 12 and held up great,I've just been hearing the new ones were deforming (the edges) so was thinking on giving the huskys a try. But not liking the last comment on the stink.

I have the OEM storage already and I should be getting my husky's tomorrow. I can post some pics after I get them in

You should be fine. I have the Husky box, but don't think they're much different than the stock box.

My wife has Weathertechs in her Tahoe. They don't fit that well (curling up, slide around some). So I tried the Husky mats for my Sierra, and like them WAY BETTER. I will not be going with Weathertechs anymore. I got the fronts and rear, plus the storage bin. Love it.

    • Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.  
    • Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
    • you might read through the info on gmupfitter.com for your truck, to find a good power source.
    • Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally. 
    • Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
