Ford RV seat covers

This reminds me of a coworker who bought a new truck many years ago. He covered the floor with a plastic pool liner to protect the carpet. Right before he traded in that truck for a new one, he removed that plastic to expose his brand new carpet that he never enjoyed, but the new owner did!

Enjoy those seats, clean them when necessary (probably every 5 years!) and don't worry about it. Covering the upholstery with something ugly and impractical makes little sense.

Why would you look to Ford seat covers? Thry probsbly did not make the seats. Look around them a bit and find a mfg tag.

here in the 'swap meets' they sell locally made seat covers. Have them on all vehicles except the rv. When I asked about getting some for these aftermarket seats I was told no pattern available, thus the seat covers not available! told them I would take into the shop for them but got no response. May try again at guy who makes them on site. Supposedly they are 'flex steel' but would rather have some good electric adjustables like found in the F series trucks, but I guess those will not fit in. The swivel aspect the dealers rave about is a waste of time IMO they are a PIA to swivel particularly the drivers and do little to give additional seating.

I have a wife. She protects everything! Lol! I just built a four season room and installing ceramic tile. What a job! Guess what she is doing Thursday? Shopping for an area rug to put on the tile! ROFL! Oh Well!

I hadn't thought of that. I will look into that.

Thanks,

The swaps will have to wait cause I don't live close to them. When we were in Texas we had access to quite a bit of RV type things you just don't find here in Iowa.
