Mountain Brown/Frost Beige two tone interior. Do you love it or hate it?

[mikeru]

I'm not really a fan of lighter colored seats either. Especially the seating surfaces. Black is and has always been my favorite color for interiors. Even when I lived in AZ. That's what window tint and remote start are for LOL. The only problem with dark colored interiors is they show dust. But that just makes me use the dash duster more often, which isn't a bad thing.

The black interiors show dust dirt and mud as fast or faster then the lighter colored interiors do.
Heck for a working truck almost need to go back with a vinyl seat, I have light colored seat protectors on my light colored seats.

The thought has definitely occurred to me that the light color may show dirt easier but leather is usually much easier to clean than cloth. The seats in my last truck were a light gray cloth and I didn't really have any trouble keeping them clean. I am a little worried what the suede on the seats and door panels will look like in a couple of years.

That's true. But there is a difference between dust or dirt and grime. Dust and dirt are easy to clean. Grime is tougher. It really depends on what you are doing when using your truck. I'm often working on other vehicles or equipment on the weekends. And it usually requires a trip or two to the hardware store, auto parts store, landfill, etc. And I don't usually have time to wash up much before getting into my truck, so there is usually residual grease, oil, or who knows what on my hands and clothing. Those substances can transfer to interior surfaces and are often more difficult to clean up. And then there are the lighter colored seat belts that usually come with the lighter colored seats. Light colored seat belts can get pretty nasty looking. I know that grime is there in my black interior, but since it's black I can't see it LOL.

Mine are black and light mountain brown and they look really, really good. I haven't had the truck long enough to get them dirty so I can't comment on the cleaning aspect.
But it sure dresses up the interior.

I've seen pictures of the black and mountain brown. That looks really sharp. I don't think that color combo is an option with the Laramie trim is it?

i was looking forward to a 75'th powerwagon with black/brown but couldn't find one in the right body color.i doesn't look right in a red,silver or other light color truck in my opinion.i do like the combo though.i ended up with pearl red/black.

love the lighter colored interiors.

My truck was finally delivered Friday and I am very happy with the interior. As they say, different strokes for different folks, but to me the brown and beige looks great together.

That's the color I would have gotten if I could have ordered a Longhorn without a chrome grille and badges. I think it's a great color combination. My Limited has all black interior, and I like it. It just doesn't pop like yours does. I also don't think that interior will show grime like lighter colors do. I'd be interested to see what it looks like in 5 years.

I keep it clean & still looks new.

I'm still thinking about taking the Top/brow piece, the two side pieces and the bottom grill surround, removing the chrome and getting color matched pieces to replace the chrome and do the same with the RAM emblem. The badges and stuff can stay, just reduce the heavy chrome appearance on the front...

Agreed, love the cattle tan and black. Would have gotten it again if I didn't opt for the mountain brown anniversary package this time.

If you want to see about 5 years old on that interior, here's the link to my 2017 now for sale from autonation:

I think it held up pretty well, we put it through a decent amount with maybe average upkeep. Think I'm going to have to be more careful with the suede/leather interior of my new one though.

I'm extremely happy with the white/black stormtrooper look my Limited has. It would have taken too much work top convert a Longhorn to that look. Black interior is my second choice, so I'm very happy with my Limited.

Your '17 looks like it held up great.

Is it really suede in your new truck, or is it alcantara? I had alcantara in a 2004 GTO, and it was pretty easy to maintain.

There would only be 4 pieces to change out, the upper valance is I think 4 bolts to remove and a couple of push pins, the trim pieces under the headlights just pop off and the lower valance would be a bit more work to get off, but not terrible. Those four pieces are just expensive....

Thanks, I was pretty happy with it. And to be honest I have no idea, it's whatever comes in that 10th anniversary package. Hopefully something more durable though, we have a lot of wet weather and our dog will be with us sometimes (although I am taking protective measures there). Was hoping to keep this one for 3-4 years at least so hopefully it holds up well.

My 2014 interior looked like new after 7 years.
