Eventually, I'm going to get a second row of 40/20/40 for the rear as well (again, not something offered from the factory to my knowledge), and I'll have them done the exact same way.

I like my cloth seats. More comfortable and warmer in the winter. If you have seat warmers, then they would be better. Just my preference

Morning folks, happy Thursday.

Jim, I'm not sure if it's because all of my trucks have leather (or the factory version thereof, because we know it's not REALLY leather in most cases...lol) or what, but I don't find the cloth that much more comfortable that I would prefer putting cloth seats back in the truck. And with as much dirt as I tracked in and out of it this year being on job sites with it like I have been, the ease of cleaning was much more appealing.

Speaking of, I need to steam clean the daylights out of my carpeting before winter...ugh.

Hi Bill. Yeah, it was a good time. Jason Peter, former defensive linemen from the national championship teams in the 90's was there. This guy has no edit function, and tells it like it is. And, he's a madman. It was entertaining as hell!

Morning Bud. Yeah, I try and go once a year. This year was really interesting, especially with all the coaching change talk going around.

Oh, yeah. And how this staff hasn't been able to develop guys. And how Nebraska has lost that physical toughness. He's right on all of it.
