poll: leather or cloth seats in your SD?!

As the title states, I'm curious, who out there prefers cloth over leather in their super duties? I have leather both my in my limited excursion and my lariat f350, and i for some reason like cloth better overall. My scion xB has cloth and i just think its more comfortable especially if you're sweaty from working outside. And in florida, its always hot out, so i can as much as walk from my porch to my truck and start to sweat...literally.

I have an XL with vinyl seats. No carpet either. My truck is like my boat. When I get it all muddy I open all the doors and hose it out. LOL

XL, cloth seats and vinyl flooring.

had a car with leather... love the feel... hate it when the Sun is out.. (HOT).
the cloth on the XL is easy to remove .. put into washing machine if needed.

NO HOG RINGS....

Until I bought my present truck (2008 SD), I was a big fan of cloth, because it was more comfortable to me. My SD has cloth, but is nowhere near as comfortable as any other vehicles I have owned. Those seats are just something to sit on while riding in the truck. If my next truck is a SD, it will be leather.

I don't know which way to vote, since I don't know which I prefer. I just know that I don't like the seats in the truck I have now.

The perforated leather in mine is as cool as any cloth seat I have owned and it is much easier to keep clean.

I prefer leather because it does not stain nor is it hard to clean like cloth. However, I would prefer cloth because my **** sticks to the seat better when driving fass! And it does not radiate heat or cold like the leather.

I really dislike leather. I got leather seats in my mustang and had to put seat covers on. When I ordered my f350 last year I wanted cloth. Just my preference.

Leather all the way here. Love it, cleans up and resists staining easier, and a/c seats keep mine nice and cool in the summer and then heat for the winter. I had cloth for nearly seven years in my 2003 and my wife's vehicles all had leather during the same time. I swore I'd never be without it again.

Myself I prefer as loaded up as possible. The only things I miss on my truck are the few options it doesn't have.

Leather for me. I searched hi and low to find just the right SD with leather. Since my truck will have my 2yo and dog in it, leather is the way to go. Cleans easier and wont absorb spilled liquids like cloth. Just my .02 though.

+1 vinyl, everywhere. Tough to stain, Wipes off easy. Doesn't catch hair, dust, or pollen.

I would do leather if it was like the 03-04 King Ranch again. All the fancy perforated calf-skin thin stuff is too ritzy.

Cloth!
My Akita didn't like being left to wait in the truck one winter day and decided to display his displeasure by turning the leather headrests on one of my previous trucks into Chew Toys.

cloth

I like cloth, when I jump in my back does not stick, cloth is never hot, never cold. Easy to clean(MicroFiber).

Good saddle leather needs to be taken care of but feels great. I have it in my king ranch, it a pain in the but to take care of. But for a truck give me something simple.

What most vendors call leather is plastic coated leather. The coating breaks down then it looks like *****.


My hunting dogs stay in their kennels in the back. They would tear up the leather.
