Does your Jeep have vinyl or cloth seating?
 
Which do you prefer?
Why?

Thanks,
Muuurgh

Cloth/velour in the ZJ. Vinal wipes easy
and puts up with water but I got tired of
my ass sticking to the bench in my old truck
and I can scotchguard the cloth seats.
I've also noticed the cloth seats tend to last
longer than vinal. All depends on what your
planning on doing. If your going to get dirty
and hose out the inside, go with vinal cause
cloth is going to get real soggy.

In all cases, no seat can tollerate forgetting
about that screwdriver in your back pocket. :/

my cj7 came with vinyl seats-i can't stand them anymore. my next seats are
going to be cloth. the vinyl gets really hot and sticky in the summer and
ice cold in winter. the only benefit is that you can get them wet and clean
them up easier than cloth. like DougW said, use scothguard.

Re: Does your Jeep have vinyl or cloth seating?
 
Cloth, definitely. When I'm offroading I just use one of those handy plastic
slip-covers that gather in the back to protect them. They wash up pretty
good too- but you don't want to do that too often otherwise they'll rot.

My old 88YJ had vinyl and I hated
sitting in them on a sunny day wearing shorts
ouch! then after awhile ya start swimming in them.
My new 01TJ has cloth, got caught in a downpour
twice with them and was surprised how quickly they dried
Cloth all the way...

my ass sticks... hate that... but I have the doors off.. it rained pretty
good last night and all I had to do was wipe off the seat and go..

Re: Does your Jeep have vinyl or cloth seating?
 
The reason I wanted vinyl was because my fear of having to sit on a wet
cushion after it rains, I don't plan to care too much if it rains or not on
or in my Jeep. I suppose I could cover cloth seat with a plastic bag at
night if its supposed to rain. Should a new Jeep owner be concerned with
these things?

My KJ has leather and a butt warmer. I like that because when I am on
a long trip to and from the trail it helps a lot. Also, since I have
to drive it to get groceries to take with me on the trail it is nice
to be comfy. :^)

My '02 has the "cowhide material"! I swore at the dealer when he said
that....cuz I knew cows didn't sweat as much as I would in the heat of
summer!

I will be recovering these at some point.
I've moved to an area with a hotter summer, so we'll see how uncomfortable
it becomes.

So what to you figure....recover or replace the seats?!?!

"The reason I wanted vinyl was because my fear of having to sit on a wet
cushion after it rains"

You get used to it. ;) Pretty soon you'll be wearing that wet-splotch all
over your butt like a badge of honor.

The cloth seats actually dry up pretty good. I get 'caught' (read: I don't
take too much care either about the rain) quite a number of times throughout
the spring/summer months. If there's a puddle in my seat in the morning, I
usually soak up what I can with a towel, cover it with a plastic garbage bag
and fire off to work. By the end of the day (if it didn't rain again) it's
completely dry. If it rained, well, repeat steps one and two. ;)

What you really want to be careful of is getting the dash wet. Luckily all
my gauges still work, but I hear water is unkind to them.

Re: Does your Jeep have vinyl or cloth seating?

cushion after it rains"

You get used to it. ;) Pretty soon you'll be wearing that wet-splotch all
over your butt like a badge of honor.

The cloth seats actually dry up pretty good. I get 'caught' (read: I don't
take too much care either about the rain) quite a number of times throughout
the spring/summer months. If there's a puddle in my seat in the morning, I
usually soak up what I can with a towel, cover it with a plastic garbage bag
and fire off to work. By the end of the day (if it didn't rain again) it's
completely dry. If it rained, well, repeat steps one and two. ;)

What you really want to be careful of is getting the dash wet. Luckily all
my gauges still work, but I hear water is unkind to them.
