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"

      Oil Consumption

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I agree.   However, the owner's manual, suggests that a drop over full is just as bad as a drop under. (Read black and white letters only, insert no common sense.)

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      That P0700 and loss of power suggests something significant is amiss to me.   More/other codes may suggest otherwise; I would investigate those prior to spending the money to change fluid on a transmission with a bad torque converter.    The relatively sudden escalation of symptoms to me suggests that something began failing (initial shuddering experienced) and rapidly deteriorated (slipping/loss of power). Fluid condition alone wouldn't cause the sudden escalation of problems - though it might have been the cause of the deterioration up to the point of failure.

      AWD conversion to Z71

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Stabilitrack operation is in a sense a separate/independent operation from the operation of 'traction control'. Stabilitrack is used to keep the vehicle traveling in the DIRECTION intended, it can brake independent wheels and or adjust throttle to influence the direction the vehicle is moving.   This can be illustrated by a 'fish-tailing' example. At high speeds, if the stabilitrack detects excessive yaw (the vehicle spinning like a top, it has a sensor for this), based on inputs from steering angle it determines that the vehicle is spinning out of control, and begins working to control that unintended spin. By reducing throttle input or braking specific wheels to control or prevent the spin.   The traction control works similarly using the ABS system to slow spinning wheels and thus transfer power to 'other' wheels. The goal being to achieve wheel speeds that are all in agreement with each other, the truck then assumes that since all the wheels speeds are the same no spinning is occurring. For example, launching up a wet boat ramp, there is no excessive yaw present, traction control alone can manage the wheel spin by braking spinning wheels and cutting throttle.   Stabilitrack and traction control from a hardware and software standpoint are basically one in the same, I don't remember specifically in 2004, but you couldn't get a truck with one and not the other. The switch on the dash, could turn off the traction control, but not necessarily the stabilitrack.    A confusing comment about stabilitrack vs. traction control, the same components serve both operations, but marketing could advertise them as two separate features.    The AWD system is another separate system entirely, in addition to the other two, it uses the same wheel speed inputs but can also vary the transfer case clutch application to direct some power to the front axle, working in conjunction with the traction control to bring wheel speeds together.   The power split will never be greater than 50:50, the same as 4-high. It will never direct MORE power to the front axle than the rear.

      Start-Stop ?

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Not based on the new photos I'm seeing.  Car and Driver posted additional photos that shows an auto stop start button left of the steering wheel.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Car and Driver is reporting wireless CarPlay WILL remain, and they posted several additional photos, including a left knee shot, but the only hard buttons there are e-brake, auto start stop, tailgate and cargo light.  Also definitely looks like High Country and ZR2 get micro fiber on the center of the console lid and the ZR2 possibly also on the seats.
