Seat cover question for you -- From a purely practical standpoint, is factory vinyl as good as it gets, or do you recommend something else? I'm thinking for a nice k20 truck that might have a three-day old calf scrambling around on the passenger seat at noon, and a well-dressed girlfriend sitting on that same seat in the evening. Are there sturdier and easier-to-clean options than factory vinyl that still have a classic good look to them? Does leather or any exotic treated fabric have an edge over vinyl in this case?

If you may have a 3 day old calf in the seat at times, I would stick with the vinyl. It’s easy to clean.
Leather is expensive.
