I'd say keep the rubber floor mat if its in good condition. You've gotta love the convenience of taking a hose to your interior.

Re: what to do for interior?
Mostly it depends on what you want. Black was very common with either orange offered. A GMC would look like these two Chevys except the glove box door would be painted black as would the cluster face. The exception being a woodgrain uplevel truck like a Sierra Grande.
Myself I'd prefer the white/parchment look or even the orange highlander plaid with the white and black trim ($500 custom made cover). Added in a saddle GMC shot for effect with the red orange 524, just picture anything saddle brown as black. Rubber or carpet is a personal choice. Carpet tends to dampen noise more than a rubber mat and has padding under it too that is the bigger noise reducer. As far as hosing out your truck, don't. The floor is not designed for that and does not have drains. All it will do is trap water. But there is a good case for rubber being much more washable than carpet come time for cleanup. Either way you go individual rubber mats over carpet or the floor rubber gives the best washable surface.
