    I haven't had any problems what so ever and I'm always wearing work pants or jeans. Then again I'm only 5'7" 170 don't know if that's a factor.

    I couldnt find a cement with leather... didn't wanna wait for it. Like everyone else is saying... that 4K upgrade will cost you at most 1.5k to do it yourself (leather/heated seats/speaker sub) I didn't include the moonroof.

    Heated Cloth for me! Love 'em!
    Got the Kryptek Typhon seat covers from Coverking. They match the TRDOR interir pretty well.

    I prefer cloth but I’m clearly in the minority. I also don’t like sun roofs haha. Keep it simple people.

    I went with Clazzio. Live in Montana-30 to -40 this winter. I have stock heated seats and have no issues with seat covers. I wish steering wheel was heated. Hint. Hint. Toyota R&D

    The thing I hate the most about my Taco - and theres not really much To hate about it cause I think its an awesome truck - are the cloth seats. To me they are uglier than a mud fence. That geometric line pattern looks like a throw back to the cheap ‘80’s era vehicles.

    Whats next Toyota interior design guy? Paint splatter graphics and pastel colors? :rolleyes::rofl:

    I fixed that by ordering Clazzios. Cant wait to get them.

    I have no regrets. My father has the premium package on his Taco with the heated leather seats and I have the cloth interior with mine (I needed the extra headroom in mine). Both of my parents and I find that my cloth seats are far more comfortable than his on longer drives.

    Shit. Cloth all the way. Leather seats are too hot here most of the damn year, and they make my back sweat on longer drives. Hell, I would've paid extra to just to get cloth instead of leather.

    I’ve had both. Cloth in my SR5 and Sport and leather in my Off-road. Like them both for different reasons, but am enjoying the leather with a 6 and 3 year old. I did purchase seat back protectors from Amazon to keep the kids from getting the back of the driver and passenger seats from muddy.

    I have cloth seats in my Frontier. They keep dog hair like NO other,and it's annoying trying to vacuum. I don't have any heaters though,so I bought cheap $10 covers for the fronts just until I can trade it in. I know for sure I want leather/heated. Summers ain't too horrible here in VA as long as you keep a window shade up lol

    I have both, cloth heated seats and Sunroof, it's a very nice combo.

    Leather with kids was a must. Car seats ruined the cloth in my wifes first car when she was doing some nannying. We never had a problem with kids and leather. Just too easy to clean up. Lexol cleaner and conditioner keeps them looking and feeling factory fresh.

    With kids now in their teens, we don't need to worry to much, but the state of my wife's car is questionable at best.

    Since my post was from March of last year, I will say that I don't think about the seats much at all. I couldn't imagine that I would be this happy with the Taco. Just cracked 20k today.

    i had heated and cooled leather seats in my Lexus GS350 and in my 400 SC.....since the frames were so low, it was easy to slide in and out on the leather......my 2016 Taco had heated cloth seats......at first I was disappointed cause I was used to leather for the past 40 years, however, the heated cloth is really nice.....cool in summer and if i need i can heat up in winter......living in SoCal though, i find i don't have to use the heat very ofter......but I can say, that I don't get fired huevos in the summer anymore......
