"Sport" leather vs. Lariat Leather

What will the quality of leather and feel be like for the new '04 f-150's ??? I hope that the "sport" leather seating on the FX4's don't feel as cheap as the Explorer's XLT's leather!! I'm sure the Lariat leather will be nicer, or is that not true ?? It always seem that the higher, more luxurious vehicles have nicer leather seats. My buddy had a nice Tahoe with the best leather seats I've ever felt, now I'm gonna be too picky... (for the record, I'm looking to buy the FX4 with the leather buckets.)

there is an option for "Sport Leather" in the FX4. It's pretty expensive (like $1100 & change). It looks really nice, but I've only seen pictures in black and I didn't see an option on the order guide for any other color.

ok guys, here's the options for leather color's in the Lariat and FX4 vehicles.... Lariat will only offer black in 40/20/40 bench seating (EB code) or captians chairs (HB code), and tan in the same seating configuration (codes "EW" 40/20/40 and "HW" captians chairs). and for FX4 the following: black in codes of "JB" (sport leather captains chairs) and "QB" (medium flint sport -leather captains chairs)........ I hope this helps?

That does help. Thanks. The grey in the FX4... is "medium flint" light grey or dark grey? I want a dark interior, but I don't know if I want it completely black. I'd like to order one, but I'm scared to order the wrong color interior.

Medium flint in FX4

I ordered my Fx4 2 days ago. The dealership had samples of the Black and Medium Flint interior leather colors. I personally didn't
like the "all" black accents, so I went with the Flint Accents. It looks awesome with the other colors in the cab.
