Steel Gray or Black interior with 2011 F-150 Platinum?

Exterior color is going to be Ingot Silver.

I'm trying to choose between those two interior colors. I've been wanting the Brown (Black) interior ever since I've seen it but I'm wondering how that interior looks over time and wear. Does it start to look more worn and such over time than the steel gray?

Thanks in advance for any and all responses.

I can't speak to the longevity question (3,900 miles so far), but I bought the black/brown combo and I absolutely love it. Three of the four cars in my house have black interior, the other is a '65 Mustang and I didn't have a lot of choice there, lol.

Black for sure. I wish I could have gotten black on black.

I've seen both aged gray leather and aged black leather and both can look ragged and worn if not carefully maintained (like no pointy objects/tools in back pockets when getting in seats) as well beautiful and pristine after over 100,000 miles.

So it really comes down to personal color preference.

I just switched from black on tan 2003 Expy to a black on Sienna Brown 2009 Plat and I can say for sure that it quickly gets HOT inside the Plat after being parked. Definitely recommend a sun shade...

I say black, but also mentioned above..... sunshade is a must.

I went with the Steel Gray. Just a personal preference as it's what I liked.
