“Limited” package seats challenges
Looking for input from anyone with the limited package for 2018. The seats are white leather with a camel color trim. How are those holding up in terms of keeping them white. Concerned they will grab color from clothing , etc.

Truck is 1 year old, 10k miles. I haven’t really done anything to them as far as regular cleaning or conditioning. I wear mostly jeans. Seats still look new. I don’t think you should worry about color transfer. My seats weren’t really white from the beginning. I think some of the online photos can be deceiving, but they are light colored.

I have an 18 Limited and I use it as a work truck. I’m in blue FR coveralls all day long and have a passenger with me as well. I’ve put on 30,000km in 5 months (took December off, so 4 months) and the seats look like brand new. The leather is not white, more of a light beige with darker brown accents. I had the dealer put on a protectant conditioner before I picked it up. There has been no transfer of any colour on to the seats. From what I read, after purchase, is that the limited leather is a better quality leather than the platinum but that could be BS. What I like about the lighter leather is that it does not show the dust. I always found that black leather always looked sort of dirty so that was the big selling point for me to jump to the limited. (Price difference was only $800 more at the dealer)

Funny you say that I came in to post I'm in the oil biz as well and my co worker has a limited and is experiencing color transfer from his blue fr coveralls on the left seat edge where you slide your *** over and out of the truck upon exiting. May be worth making the conscious effort to try to lift yourself rather than sliding.
