I love that new TV smell!
Picked up my new Chevy Silverado 2500 HD yesterday. I'm pretty sure it's gonna yank my Bullet 272 just fine. It replaced a tired 07 Avalanche. Now I've got some serious adjustments to make to the Equalizer hitch...

I went gas. My Avalanche was a 2WD LTZ. The Silverado is a 4WD LT but it's fancier then the Avalanche. My girls love it. Now it's time to make a phone call to Weather Tech. Then a rolling tonneau, then ...🤑

Congrats on the new truck. Look at Husky Weatherbeater liners too for your interior floors. Husky's sometimes fit better on certain models. They fit nicer in the NNBS of my 08 Yukon XL Denali.

I like the Weather Tech liners as well. You mention a rolling cover for the bed; you might look at the BakFlip folding hard covers. I put one on my truck and love it. It's sturdy, doesn't flop and will support 400 lbs.

Good info guys! I will check out those liners and the flip bed cover as well.

I have a 2016 3500HD. The WeatherTech mats fit perfect. I also installed a GatorTrax MX electric roll-up bed cover. It is like a metal roll-up garage door and stated to support 500 pounds. Hopefully will hold up what ever snow we get.

I may have the truck but I don't have a trailer behind it yet. We are still looking.

WeatherTech floor liners ordered. May order the WeatherTech bed mat later. I really don't want a plain rubber mat. Not sure I really want or need a full blown spray-in bedliner either.
Looking into the storage box under the rear seat too. That one from GM is pricey for a basic plastic shell. Husky makes on too for a little cheaper.
Then the tonneau, running boards, etc.
Man! Accessorize get these things is not cheap...

I have spray in bed liner and would never use anything else. I saw a jeep the other day that had the entire body sprayed with it. Surprisingly it looked really good. Hmmmmmm..... I have an Undercover bed cover and love it but really want one of the electric roll up ones in the next truck.
Have fun. I'm wanting to order a new 3500 srw in April.

I got the GM Rear Seat Storage - Fits Nicely, Easy to Bolt in (If You Wish). I got it at AMAZON a little Cheaper than from Dealer (~185.00 I think - Still Pricey for a piece of Hard Plastic). Just took the GM Part Number to Amazon. The seats fold down right to the top to keep everything enclosed nicely.
My truck came with the factory Spray in Liner - It is very nicely done.

I use a spray in bed liner plus the rubber mat in the floor (about 1/2" thick - don't remember the manufacturer). The spray in liner does protect the bed from scratches and scrapes and keeps the bed looking nicer. The mat keeps things in place and they don't run from front/back, side to side plus it further protects the bottom of the bed from dings. The down side is you can't just grab something and "scoot" it across the bed.
And yes, the accessories can tally up quickly.

Don't forget mud-flaps as they can save a lot of damage to your trailer! I really like the no drill Husky
