Katzkin Leather Seat Covers for Maverick

[Pickles]

Also the lariat package your are paying an extra $3K and it's not even real leather. It's fake. This active X material, AKA "pleather". Your paying more money for a leather wrap steering wheel, and vinyl seats

Haha ya exactly. Lariat + lux is like 8k lol and the only things i want from it are leather and heat haha

He's definitely not feline those seat covers.....

Oh! I must have misread the post. I thought he was using cover-ups until he was able to save up for the more expensive replacements. So, the people using replacement covers are unhappy with the original and want something a bit different?

i am, you read it right, he just didn’t see the 2nd part of my post you were replying to

Exactly. I already bought a nice leather wrap steering wheel to swap in. Will be going katzkin seats with seat heaters as well.

Ah ok. Well in that case, for the most part, those of us ordering our trucks with katzkin do it for these reasons:

We want heated seats and leather seats
We don’t want to pay for lariat +lux

katzkin is fully customizable leather for 1500-2000 American installed and can be done through ford before you get your truck to remove any downtime

Thanks for the explanation. I've understood why some would opt for the Katzkin over the more expensive packages and I think that's a smart move. I thought BootXL76's post was about using a cheaper cover in the interim until he could afford the higher priced Katzkin. I didn't realize the pic he posted was a Katzkin. Hopefully, we're good now.

Let's not forget the lux package includes other items ... not just the seating material. Also, at this stage of the limited supply of Mavericks, one cannot always get their ideal build. For example, I didn't necessarily care for a sunroof, but it was on a vehicle that was available and I wasn't going to pass it by and wait for God knows how long.

Why are you laughing at other people's decisions? Are you of the opinion that everyone is in the same situation as you, or that everyone should make decisions about their vehicle the same as you? Your post smells of "asshole".

Nope, not at all, I am laughing at the fact that ford is selling a higher priced package with fake leather seating, and some are buying it maybe not realizing it's not real. I could remember a time when everything came as vinyl seating, and you payed more for luxurious cloth seating.

If someone can afford a lariat, then more power to em. I dont need dual zone climate control, acoustic windshield, fake leather seats, fancier factory wheels that I intend to swap out anyways, or color keyed mirrors and door handles, fancier gage panel with LED segment fuel and temp gages. I prefer gages with pointers myself. I dont need to pay the extra $3K or more for that. It's got nothing I want save for a perfect condition leather wrap steering wheel which I already got used off a brit spec 2019 focus RS MK4. Same wheel.

This is just a truck to get me back n forth to work as a commuter. 95% of the time I am in it by myself. No need for dual zone. Only reason I went and upgraded to XLT from XL was the Granger motors deal, and the cruise control.

Nope no heated rim. This one looks brand new from a british spec 2019 focus RS MK4. Was at a used parts house on evilbay. $150 USD shipped.

Ah thats pretty good. Steering wheels are expensive. So far i’m probably going to get a leather cover off amazon and leather wrap mine myself

Thank you for taking the time to explain your post. I support that you understand your needs. I support your decision to not purchase items or packages that do not fit your needs and that you are wise enough to know the difference between needs and wants. I'm sorry if I misinterpreted your post. I read it as if you were poking fun at those whose needs and decisions were different than yours.
I went for the Lariat because I wanted the lux and driver assist items ... I wanted the push button Start/Stop. I didn't have a choice on the seats. I don't care if the Lariat's seats aren't leather ... I like the look and feel of them. I needed a replacement for my Chevy Colorado that caught fire in my driveway and burned down my house. This Lariat showed up at a Ford dealer within 100 miles so I went for it. Everyone has a story behind their purchase and I thought your post was a bit callous.

I didn't buy the Lariat Lux for the Active X seats. But I have to admit I like them better than the leather seats I've had. If they hold up better and never crack/split/discolor/fade, I will be a full on convert. Faux leather has come a long way. And likely is going to get more and more prevalent. It's in the Mustang Mach E too.

I have had real leather and fake leather multiple times. I prefer fake leather.
