I’ve tried searching and couldn’t find anything, what are you guys doing as far as seat covers for dogs and such to ride?   My dog loves to ride but I’m a bit hesitant to throw her in my SLT and end up with scratched up interior and leather.  I’ve seen some on Amazon that would pretty much cover everything in the back seat, but I wanted to hear your opinions.  Thanks!

I use and really like the 4knines hammock seat cover. Instead of having the hammock part attach to the front seats I tuck it under and clip it to the bottom of the seat so that can still fold the seat up when needed. Doing that makes it much easier to vaccum out the dog hair weekly and also keeps the dog hair from sticking to carpet under the seat. I've had it for a year and so far is holding up great.

 

For the front seats i use the carhart seat covers.

I've been wondering about doing exactly what you have done.  It is working out well?

 

I love the hammock idea, but my dogs are too big to be loading in every time by hand bombing them in, and jumping that high from the ground themselves they could do but i'm sure the truck would end up with some scratches after a while going that path.  I might have to try what you have done.  I'm assuming they have the ability to walk around freely on the floor and seats then from how you are describing it?

Yes they can walk around freely, and it has worked out great. When you need the cover off for people you can just unhook it from the headrests and fold everything under the seat. I have another picture showing how it attached to the bottom of the seat frame but the file size is too large. If you dm me your email I can send that to you as well.

That shows me exactly what I was wondering and you having done it proves to me it works.  Thanks for the pictures.  I always see the hammock used how its normally to be used and that just doesn't work unless you have smaller dogs.

full back seat cover like many others posted here, I also picked up a set of door protectors from weathertech. the cocoa color matches my dark walnut pretty well. they work great for a doggy who likes to put her paws on the armrests to look out the window. She has also given me a reason to use the passenger's window disable button for the first time in my life!

one thing with the weather tech, they work very well but since the windows (crew cab) go all the way down it tends to pull the protector up when you put the windows back up. its fine as long as you don't lower the windows in the back completely. I need to find a solution for that.

I looked at those door protectors but I don't think they will work with my double cab. Windows 17" wide and the door protector is 22"

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By KARNUT · Posted

      More is cylinder deactivation. Kia-Hyundai Ive had 4. The warranty is the same 10 years 100K miles. My grandson drives the first one 05 Elantra GT. My wife drives the second one 2011 Genesis. The Genesis still performs as new and looks great. The Elantra looks rough. He’s not kind to it. The third was a Genesis coup. The fourth was a Santa Fe. Those were my daily drivers. I don’t keep them long. Kia is the same as Hyundai with the same warranty. I looked at the K-4 today. Too small, otherwise pretty good buy. Most of Hyundai and Kia’s have a performance upgrade.

      Oil Consumption

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Great question. Answer....depends. One the volume of the crankcase, the driver that will actually be using the vehicle and the amount it uses plus the distance expected for that next trip. Couple of for instances:   Wife is going to drive Dizzy to Moline and back plus a bit around town so say 500 miles on the day. I know from years with that SUV that around town and local rural it uses about a quart in 1250 miles. But on the Interstate and her at the wheel without her anchor nagging her she'll push it and it will drop a quart in about 800 miles. Hence, around town I wait to somewhere between a quarter down to a quart down. On her trip I'd top it if it was down a few ounces and hope for the best.    Have I overfilled one? You mean by adding before it needs a full quart I assume. No, not once after finding the true fill mark.  I know the dipsticks of everything I drive and add what it needs. I learn this by doing the first oil change a quart low. Run the motor for a few minutes. Let it sit over night. Check and mark. Then add half a cup at a time making note of the place on the stick. I add through the dipstick tube with a barbeque basting bottle. Give it a few minutes to drain down and check again.    A vehicle like Dizzy that uses this much oil will take a few quarts between 3K changes. I keep one in the vehicle with the bottle and a bag. (Mindful of it's fullness) Not a big deal and never makes a mess of it. There is no such thing as "multiple quarts' in my shop for any specific oil. There will be a maximum however of the number of different oils used over the fleet.     Dizzy holds a nominal 5 quarts. So the first fill was indeed over as it actually took 4.75. My vehicles are fit with Valvomax valves so I can meter an ounce on the drain if need be. Found her mark first crack at it. Never to be repeated.    Pepper uses none between changes so I don't keep a quart in that one. Straight up 6 quarts put her dead on the full line. Check it ever fuel stop. They will surprise you when they start using.    Raven holds 3 liters or 5.44 ounces over three quarts. I add 3 quarts and 6 ounces. That gives me 5 oil changes on my orphan quart.    Lawnmower holds about 3/5 of a quart. I don't over fill it to prevent an orphan. So yea, depends.

      185k on original 6.2L engine and 10 speed. 6" lift with 35" tires. Changed oil (Mobil 1 synthetic) when truck told me to. Original tranny with original fluid and no service or flush done. All highway miles. A/C compressor replaced at 155k. Oil cooler line replaced at 180k. Still daily driver. Love this truck.   This is my 3rd 6.2L vehicle (2008 Yukon Denali / 2018 Cadillac Escalade) with over 150k miles and no issues. Denali had broken motor mount at 100k.
