Well done on your astute purchase.

What color did you go with ?

I'm sure you will find most answers here on the forum, especially to do with leather.
Our resident expert and modulator on that subject has expounded his theories many times....do a search.
Any other issues come back with particular questions and someone here will know the answer or guide you in the right direction.

Just going back to the leather issue, the King Ranch spent some time researching the question of leather feeds, and came up with their own brand available from the KR Saddle Shop.

As someone who has treated leather in vehicles for more years than I care to remember I have found the KR product to be excellent.

Just think of the treatment you give leather as "feeding" it and you won't go wrong.

Will someone invent an icon for KR leather conditioner or something.

I can't stand these "Nanners"

PS What the hell is a "Nanner"

If it's from Banana it should be " Nana ", which is easier to type anyway.

Thanks for the input... I went with the white on arizona.....I love it. I know alot of people like the copper and the black..but I went with the white.. higher resale and easier to keep clean. I hope to have some pics up sometime next week.

I noticed the flyer card in the truck that told me to go to krsaddleshop.com and purchase the conditioner there. I figured that would be the best route to take with it.

Take care everyone.

Ps. The nana thing was really strange.

Glad you found the KR Website.

They have some great stuff.

In the early days of the first KR F 150's some of use early purchasers found ourselves receiving through the mail lovely leather gifts like Desk Organizers etc., and they always came with a bottle of the leather conditioner.

However I think the KR branding was so successful they must have decided it was too expensive an idea to keep up.

The "Nanner" thing sadly came over from the general discussion board.
I never understood it there either !!
Just a sign of congratulations on a sound purchase.....it's just that the spelling irritated me.

But as you will find out .... I get irritated very easily !

You have no sense of humour.

An icon for KR leather conditioner??? Now that's a ball of fun there! Good idea! Have a nanner!

Lenticular,

I think you mean "sarcasm." Your comment was sarcastic, not ironic. That you don't know the difference is ironic. I'm joking around -- a guy I work with uses that line in jest all the time and I think it's funny.

No.....It wasn't sarcasm, but then I agree it wasn't irony in the pure definition....and after all the British are masters of irony !!

What I said was just getting around saying I was sick of stupid dancing bananas. (Spelt badly even in it's shortened form)

There I've said it now !!!

The dancing Leather conditioner icon was .....well....just fanciful.

The original poster did not get that though.
I think he thought I was serious!!!

It was a terrible example of irony to say the least. Don't you hate it when you have to go back and explain yourself?

Let's be honest Lenticular - you just haven't gotten over my review of the KR Expy.

I am hoping to take some pics this afternoon and get them posted tonight. If all goes as planned that is. The truck has yet to be detailed by the dealer..so I may wait until the weekend..They are supposed to do all of my detail work then. But I am so pumped about it I probably will at least get a few pics up tonight.
