Stupid steering wheel
I noticed the top of my steering wheel has worn down and now is smooth, the grip is all worn off and the dam truck only has 23,000 on it. It's definitely a warranty issue but just wonderin if this wahppend to anyone else or maybe i need a winshield visor to keep the sun off the wheel. Any way just wonderin thanks.

I know nothing lasts forever but 23,000 is a little early and i baby that truck i'm always cleanin it in and out so i figured i didn't feel the little rubber bugars cause i'm always wipin the wheel but i guess i'll just get a wheel cover but they make the wheel to fat and i hate that. Can't have eveything i guess. Thanks guys

My leather steering wheel looked like crap, installed good cover. Had to cut leather off so it would fit.

Also, it sometimes helps to heat up the steering wheel covers to make them more flexible and easier to put on. Two people also helps a bit.

anything would hurt to bounce your head off of in an accident. isnt that the general theory behind the airbag things that tend to make itty bitty wrecks so expensive? one little tap, POW.
