King Ranch leather durability/maintenance??

[cdraayer]

I'm considering the KR package on a new F250, but I had a few questions I hoped someone could answer:

Does the KR leather wear well? Does anyone have any pictures of KR leather with a few miles on it?

Does KR leather require any special upkeep? Is it more sensitive to wear or getting dirty than normal Lariat leather?

Thanks guys.

I really can comment on the KR leather package, is the leather of a different quality in the KR than it is in the Lariat? As far as how to take care of it, just use a good quality leather cleaner and protectant. Should last the life of the truck no problem.

Use Lexol .

The leather in the KR is considerably heavier then the Lariat leather. I use Lexol on it about once a month - just a wet rag to wipe down and then Lexol to condition it.

It does wear like iron though. I made the mistake of having a screwdriver in my back pocket and sat down. The pointy end scraped the leather a bit, and Lexol took the scratch (not too bad) out. Had it been like my 2001 Lariat leather - it would have ripped big time!!

Wow, NICE truck Pirate! Thanks for the info.

Other experiences still welcome
