Thread: Leather vs. Cloth intereiors

    Oaky, since I am already pissin' people off today, why is friggin' leather so popular in truck cabs? You sweat your ass off when its hot, it stains easily, tears and punctures, its COLD in the winter, it doesn't breath,(well the REALLY expensive stuff does....the only positive I can think of is that it smells nicer when its new. So I am biased. It is HARD to find a new truck with cloth! What am I missing here? Cloth is about one in fifty these days. Somebody tell me the logic behind this. Luxury cars I can understand maybe, but in a truck!?

    Makes it easier to cleanup when one of my kids spills their drink in the backseat.

    We always get leather. Still have a '94 chevy with leather, no stains, always got in wet at the river, no tears or punctues either. Because it is natural, I guess, never sweat in summer. Seat heaters for winter if it's that bad. Truck shopping 3 weeks ago, and almost all had cloth. Just my opinion.

    stale milk is very hard to get out(smell) we had cloth one time and traded it in because I could keep it clean with baby bottles full of milk falling between the seats. :jawdrop:
