can we discuss cloth seats and carpeting

[Big Boss]

We still don’t know all options at this point. I’d not be surprised to see options for upgraded seats for lower trims when we really get to build our Broncos.

That is also true. Big Bend + Mid package is ideal for me except for the seats. I know there are aftermarket options but something like that I would rather have from the factory.

Most manufacturers have an "aftermarket" leather option. My dad bought a new Ram last year with cloth, then took it back in to the dealership to have leather installed. Much cheaper upgrade and good quality too.

You can peel the cloth or leather off most seats and replace it with whatever you want. This seems like a fairly low priority thing to worry about since it is so easy to buy the inexpensive covering and just replace it.

The flooring is pretty much the same. Mildly inconvenient in the scheme of things. Get the cheap one and replace it if you're particular about textures etc.

What I'm concerned about is if I will fry my ass on vinyl seats like the fake leather from the 70s, and therefore need to get a removable/washable slipcover.

really,,white cloth seats?

wtf were they thinking?

I love that shit, it's so different

My trucks got vinyl/cloth, I prefer it to leather, and I never owned anything BUT leather

Its stated as "unique cloth" and from pictures it does look closer to leather than cloth fabric...I guess time will tell

Edit: Alright, not sure where I saw the word "unique" from and some pictures do look clothy. Guess I'll sit the next couple plays out

out here ( it's 109 today) you don't want leather or vinyl seats...can't sit down on them when you come back from filling up the gas tank (cloth seat covers and beach towels to cover the steering wheel is the norm)....looking for cloth - maybe denim ( light grey/blue) with "bronco" rivets ( like the bolt heads on the grab bars).

Agree - If I can get a white top and this white/grey interior I'll deal with whatever it's made out of because It looks perfect. (praying for the white top option) My 1999 Jeep TJ cloth seats wore extremely well and dried out quickly - Cloth can be used in open air vehicles as long as it is designed well

Glad I didn't have to start the thread lol. I also despise cloth seats. I actually don't even understand why it is offered on this type of vehicle. It just seems like it would be impossible to keep clean.

Topless in summer you might appreciate cloth better that leather...

That is also a very good point. Maybe I will change my tune haha.

I would know, AC Seats only work so well and while flying down the highway helps, it's still like a blow dryer during the summer day

I love cloth. Doesn't burn in the summer, doesn't freeze in the winter, and it holds ones flatulence to enjoy later. I prefer not to have heated or cooled seats. Less weight, complexity, crap to go wrong. I like manual transmissions too. Go figure.

I wouldnt mind having the rubberized floor but I definitely do not want vinyl seats. Hopefully there will be some options in that regard.

 

[DrewBronc21]

Are there any more images of Cloth seats and carpeted floors? I haven’t seen any.

I prefer cloth seats to vinyl. I live in New England where we are subjected to extreme heat and extreme cold. In the summers, leather is brutal to sit on during a hot day. You can get by sometimes by remote starting the car and letting it cool some before getting in but that's not always possible.
In the winters, the leather turns hard as a rock and you tend to slide around on it. Plus its cold to sit on and again requires remote starting to get the leather temp a little warmed up.

Cloth, on the other hand, is more forgiving in both instances. They are typically treated with 3m treatments anyways to reduce staining. And in extreme dirt cases, I would just throw a seat cover over when I'm planning on getting muddy.

 

[toystwo]

is there any chance you could get leather or vinyl as an add on with the base or bend?

Magic 8 Ball says No. Look here:
