Well, I guess no new truck is truly yours till your 3 year old pukes in it. On a related note, screw you, GMC for those BS rear floor mats in my AT4 that are impossible to get out...

if you have the gm version of the weathertech floor liners, they snap together in the middle

True, but they go up under the carpeted storage bin under the rear seat. That’s the hard part. And, while I’m at it, screw GMC for that tiny strip of carpet at the bottom of the back of the front seat. You know, the spot where the puke would land?  I’ll quit biatching now...

I really, really wish TRUCKS would come with rubber flooring with provisions to snap on carpeted floor mats. That’s the way it should be. Carpet looks nicer and hides all the little stones, grass etc that gets tracked in.  Need to get muddy?  Throw the carpet mats in the back because the floor underneath is rubber. Duh. 

 

Somebosy listen. Please.

Carpeting I believe is better for road noise reduction. I agree though... You buy a vehicle with carpeting, then spend $2-300 on rubber/plastic floor liners to protect the carpet lol... I don't like carpeting in my house or vehicle... Whenever we recover a floor in a room we switch to some type of laminate, hardwood, tile etc...

The floor mats do go under the storage compartment but if you detach them in the middle they easily just slide out from under it.

Well, my dealer forgot to reinstall the carpeted storage area under the seats when they put my Z71 all weather mats in.

 

I guess this the upside for missing that... it will be easier to remove if my toddler mucks up the truck with his lunch. Lol

I hope you are going to go back to the dealer and have them put that back in.   You paid for it and should have it.

Yeah, I am. Dealer is a buddy of mine. They swapped for my truck with a different dealer, who is the one who left the carpeted storage thing out. So my buddy has a new one for me.

That's strange my rear floor mats don't go under the storage bin under the seat

The correct installation is actually to cut the liners before the storage bin. But many dealers just put the bin down on top of them... making it harder to remove them.

My storage bin I bought was from the dealership and I put it in, no cutting of the mats.

You don’t have to, but the mats have a cut line on them where you can. Thus, you can remove the mats without having to remove the bin.

If I’m not mistaken, the cut line on the mats is for the GM accessory lockable storage box, not the little carpeted bin. The lockable storage box needs a lot of cutting on the mats or the lids won’t sit right. The carpeted bin technically needs no cutting to install but I trimmed my mats around it to make it easy to pull the mats out. Worth noting that the places I cut did not match that of the lines on the mat, I had to take more off in certain areas to get the fit I wanted.
