You chose that color on purpose?

I’ve got a lariat and like the look of the “pleather” but was hoping the cloth option was available on the lariat…

I know, I'm not a fan of leather. I really wish I could have gotten the lariat with cloth seats!!

I wish I could have gotten an XLT with the pleather seats, and not the "septic tank brown" that is the only standard option without spending another $1645 for the BAP. We could have traded. OK, I also wanted a Sirius/XM capable stereo. Ridiculous that I had to order the highest trim level to get that.

"Pleather seat", that's a pretty good description. It sort of reminds me to, when people used to put plastic cover on the sofa in the formal living room...

I’ve been noticing that critical negativity has been lingering on this forum. Some posts are great, and some give a bad vibe.

Yes. It's a plague here. I agree.

Seriously... If people feel the need to be negative online, their life must REALLY suck. To those people:
Sorry you are unhappy, but learn to avoid commenting as a first step to your recovery.

That said, I'm not fond of the color choice either, but I do enjoy the seats themselves and the work. I'd kill for real leather in mine over this synthetic blend. If I could get the XLT with all the options I want and then just add Katzkin's I would, but I'd be missing a couple things I consider "must have" for a vehicle now. I think the more orangish color is an easy blend of these trucks. Take off some XLT parts in the interior that are orange, or buy some accents online, and there ya go - blended. Helluva lot better than all black IMO. But either way, color aside, I think it's very cool to see all leather being used and I like that those fabric portions like on the rear seat are now leather too.

I was hoping someone would mention the fine rich authentic "CORINTHIAN LEATHER"!

So, all joking aside, where could a person get Corinthian leather seat covers for a Maverick? I bet it would be pretty expensive!

Not trying to put anyone down. If I was, rest assured, it would be much more obvious. I was concerned when I ordered the Maverick without seeing one in real life that the seats may be cheap looking because of the color scheme. Now that I have seen them and lived with them for a year, I would not replace them with a color scheme that I feared they might be when I ordered!!!! Color is a matter of personal preference; I just happen to like the original seat color combination more than the one you chose. If someone has a bit different taste than you and is not in complete agreement, it does not mean they are "putting you down!!"

I'm happy with the materials and color in my Lariat. They could be a little more supportive.

And then there is the topic of slaughtering animals and putting their skin on seats..just a thought.

Animals (except pets) were put on this earth as source of food, shelter and clothing, as well as weapons could be made from bones. Are we just going to make farm animals extinct? Otherwise we will have a lot of wasted hides. I personally don't want to eat lab created meat., we get way to many chemicals added to food as it is. Just my opinion.

You’re wasting your breath on someone that makes a comment like that. Just like all the people that think an electric car is totally greenhouse gas free. You need to drive one 100,000 miles just to break even with a modern gas vehicle considering all the pollution it puts out during the production of the car and their batteries in particular, without even considering the pollution, put out at the power plants that produce the electricity to charge them.

You would think they would make EV's cheaper if they to encourage people to buy! Cities are already having regular rolling blackouts to keep up with electricity supply, what's it going to be like if every vehicle, truck, bus, plane, mowers are electric as well? And how many millions of people become unemployed, gas producers & suppliers, oil change facilities and much more?

I've never understood why the factory Lariat interior wasn't leather from the get-go. It's vinyl, the insert color is (IMHO) ugly, and the all-black interior simply isn't an option for me, here in Florida. Very happy with my XLT interior, thank you. Having grown up in an AMC family, it reminds me of their Levi's interior.

easy answer
than dont purchase a Maverick Lariat

OOPS! Someone forgot to tell me that I'm not supposed to post my opinions here. You see, I'm not a mind reader. But I've made a note to avoid anything that says "numike." Happy now?

Yeah, I was trying to match that stupid looking jacket of yours.
