After more than 10 years of using WeatheTech mats, I got some Husky custom fit mats. Man, they are so much better than Weathertechs in my 2013 Silverado. They are cut perfectly and cover more space. You can't go wrong. I just got sick of the Weathertechs wearing through so fast.

Never heard of them wearing through. I had a set in my 99 chevy for 8 years before I sold it for my 07 in my sig. I got

a set a month after I got my 07 still have the truck and show no signs of wear on them yet.

I've been using Weathertech mats in my vehicles for almost 10 years, covering five vehicles. Never had any complaints, never wore them out. I guess I'm a "light duty" user.

They fit my Cruze like total crap, but they fit my truck really good. The Husky Liners fit even better though from what I've seen.

Switched from WeatherTech to Husky Liners in this truck and will never go back, They cover way more of the floor, don't slide around on me, and are a much heavier mat. I like them so much I have some ordered for my wife's new Terrain we bought a couple weeks ago. Plus, they are cheaper than WeatherTech. Both are made in the USA I've read so that made my decision to switch easier.

They do slide around in my pickup. I'd like to get the Xact Contour, but as far as I know, they don't make them for my 2006.

Not at the moment. I checked before I ordered the mats I have now. No idea why they don't offer them.

Not happy with the weathertechs in my GMT900, they slide around too much and they keep getting weird black dots on them that I can't remove without taking a chunk of rubber off the mat, annoying. The rear weathertechs is really good though.

Had a pair of husky liners in my 99 Silverado, the plastic warped and would never stay in place. Was not pleased at all. Purchased them in 2003. Hopefully their quality has improved since then.

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Ok that confirms the extra quart theme they are still going with which must mean they have noted some initial use more so then some engines and probably the bigger factor in all of this probably isn't the engine so much as its the insane distance or OLM that lulls a lot of the driving public into driving their new vehicle off the lot and not even doing one short interval oil change because the manufacturer doesn't say different and if the dealer follows that logic as well. Selling the rarely needing to be serviced concept seems to go over well with the public that wants to get away with as little as possible for dollars spent on the vehicles maintenance and I bet there are 3.0 engines just like other vehicles out there that never have their oil checked by the owner which goes back to why they probably felt the need to add that extra quart to avoid a costly theme.    Speaking of cutting filters open, it was probably over two years ago now that a youtuber who buys vehicles to do longer term reviews and pulls a fifth wheel through the mountains of Colorado on summer trips and that becomes part of the testing. Anyway he had a GM HD with the 6.6 gas and a Ford 250 with the 7.3 gas at the same time and of no surprise the Ford had more power etc but somewhere along the way in the few thousand miles he put on the truck, he changed the oil and was seeing glitter and cut open the filter and yeah, things were not looking spectacular. The truck about that time or soon after seemed down on power compared to what it had been and then threw some engine code, I expect the cam/lifters were failing and so he brought the truck back to the dealer and made some deal to get out of it as he knew it would sit for months waiting on a new engine as they were so backlogged at the time. He kept the GM for some time after that using it exclusively until he sold it after buying his next vehicle to do a review on. Definitely the filter can tell a story when things are starting to go sideways, but it would be a sickening feeling to cut it open and be faced with an ugly mess like that and be running a magnet through the pleats and the oil on the dirty side of the filter and see all the fines sticking to the magnet.    The dealer may have some ideas based on experience as to where that coolant smell is coming from, I would imagine if they can't find it but its smelling they would put dye in it to they could give it a run cycle and use the black light to see where it pops up, if its a hose connection, water pump, rad or even a head gasket etc.

      Oil Consumption

      By KARNUT · Posted

      It’s at the point of amusement. I’m retired I have time. It’s fun seeing people try to convince me I’m using oil. I’m buying oil at the prescribed time. It gets drained and new goes in. Do I add in between, no. My oil doesn’t even get dirty in 5k miles. I don’t even see any drop on the stick. I check in the same place. All is well.
