I just bought a 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali w/ Cocoa/Dune interior. I'm struggling on a floor mat for the color of the interior. The tan from weathertech doesn't match well. Any other suggestions? Pictures please. (I saw a previous post in 2014 but am curious on updated info.)

sigh, GM makes "floor liners" for the Cocoa/Dune interior, they are similar to the weather tech's. Try a search...

 

IMO, the GM floor liners are superior to weather techs, they are thicker and made with a more rubbery material, my 2010 caddie weather tech's now feel like cheap plastic liners.

Not sure why peeps buy light colored interiors, after working as a tech for years, the light colored seats and trim really take a beating and hard to keep clean, I remember when MB sold a very close to white colored interior, man o man the customers were pissed, they were swapping out trim and sills to keep from getting shoe scuffs on entry/exit, the carpet always looked nasty, lucky GM put the dark color Cocoa on the carpet. still I cant stand the sight of Cocoa/Dune esp... on a Denali yuck to each is their own, good luck.

Because the black interiors get HOT. I agree the tan and grey interiors show wear but after owning my last 2 vehicles with black interiors I will not go back. I liked the Dune since the carpet and dash are a nice compromise between black and a lighter color.

I had a double cab previously with black interior so I brought them over to my cocoa/dune truck as well. Since the area around the floor is mainly the darker color the black mats don't look too bad. I'm with you in that I don't care much for the tan Weathertechs.

All interior's get hot! black gets a bit hotter, but I have window tint and windshield sun shade so not really a issue, I am in TX so I understand HOT just fine, its finally reaching 100 degrees here still have no issues.

 

You can almost brand yourself with the seatbelt buckle on any color interior here, reducing direct sunlight is key.

I went with black Husky floor mats and they look just fine next to the Coco/Dune interior.

Light color floor mats look like crap from the black soles of shoes on them. That is how our tan Yukon floor mats look, always looking dirty. Get a dark colored floor mat (at least a dark brown) so it won't show as much. Who cars about matching it is on the floor which you never see and it won't match after a little time stepping on them...

 

BTW, the vehicle color is more dependent on the heat inside than the interior color. Colors are heat temperament in direct sunlight, interiors barely get any sun and are just susceptible to the air temperature inside. Light exterior, dark interior will be the same or extremely to a light exterior and light interior. Though I do prefer how the tan/brown interior looks, I do too many dirty things to have to worry about keeping it clean so it was black for me.

 

Camcamaro, living in Texas as well and we have had a few black trucks, pretty much done with them. They show so many imperfections and they do get hotter (testing showed about 15 degrees+/-). They heat up faster and take longer to cool. Even my dark green is a little much but I like the color.

 

Some more interesting info "A 2011 study by the Berkeley Lab Environmental Energy Technologies Division discovered that white, silver, and other light paint colors do improve a car's efficiency. The study, which pitted a silver Honda Civic against a black one, found that light colored cars reflect about 60 percent of sunlight compared to dark colored cars. This translates to a 2 percent decrease in fuel economy (due to increased air conditioner use), a 1.9 percent increase in carbon dioxide emissions, and a 1 percent increase in other harmful emissions for a black car [source: Owano]."

I had the light interior in my 09. I have black now. Going back to light. Taking my black Weathertech liners with me. One reason is when you drop something....hard to see with black. Cheers

The factory ones are a perfect match and are available on eBay. I purchased the front and rear full floor liners for mine.

I went with the husky liners. I loved weathertech but the passenger side doesn't have an anchor and slides. The husky has factory style nibs on the underside to keep them in place.

Even with light colored interiors, I always use black mats/liner, there is usually black pretty close to the floor and the contrast looks better.

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      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.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      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.
