A Brief Introduction to the Awesome World of Truck Seat Covers
72Protecting the Interior of Your Truck Seat
You want to protect your truck from all the myriad ways it can get damaged, lose value, and just generally look bad. Well, in this article we can help you with at least one element of your plan: keeping your ride pristine through the use of truck seat covers. If you’re a hunter, you probably have various knives jingling around the seats and the console, and you probably also do a lot of late-night or early morning driving – times when you can’t really see what’s going on around you. Maybe you’re a smoker and you’re tired of burning holes in your seating cushion. Or quite frankly maybe you’re none of these things: you’re just an average Joe (or Jolene) who owns a truck and cares about maintaining it and even “pimping” it out a bit… Just a bit. Sometimes vastly enhancing the interior look of your truck, kind of like fresh paint on the walls of your home.
Protection
Put simply, a truck seat cover is designed explicitly to protect your seats from the wear and tear of all the people (mostly yourself) who come in and out of it everyday. It is a slip that goes over the seat and should ideally fit like thin glove. The best are made from high-quality polyester fabric and have been treated in such a way that they are waterproof and will not stain. Oh, what’s that, do you drop your coffee a lot, eat burgers and fried that don’t always make it into your mouth while driving? Well this is the invention for you Mr. Sloppy Face.
Your truck seat cover will also probably be laced with foam
on its underside. This gives you an even more comfortable ride than you
would’ve otherwise had, even with the advances that have been made in today’s
truck seating. They really are quite comfy people.
A word of advice to the potential buyer: make sure that your truck seat covers will accurately fit the make and model you are driving around. This shouldn’t be a problem, as these things are quite stretchy and the people making them know what they’re doing, but I just thought I’d mention it.
Camo Covers
Nowadays you can get camo seat covers. For those of you who
are out of the loop, camo = camouflage. That’s right you can protect your ride
and hide from the enemy at the same time! Just kidding. But I have to say a
camo seat cover is a terrific way to streamline the whole attitude that comes
with driving a truck, or a car for that matter. It is bad a** with a capital A.
If you’re like me and you’re a chicken in real life, you can at least pretend
you’re in the army, out palling around, conducting missions.
These camo seat covers come in typical camouflage and also in the notorious blue camouflage. So if you learn how to fly your truck in the air, no one will be able to see you, or your seat at least. Some of my favorite makers include Elegant and Type S / Winplus. Look around and you’ll find them – they truly know how to give you what you want. And they’ve been in the game a little while.
All kidding aside folks, the purpose of a truck seat cover is twofold: as has been stated to keep your actual seats clean and pristine, but also so that you can drive around in a little style. So many people just buy a car and leave it as it came as it slowly degrades and gets stained and tainted. You don’t want to be one of those people. So that leads us to the final thing I want to touch on in this article:
Yes, They do Make Custom Seat Covers
For all you creative types out there, you will want to look
into the whole field of custom truck seat covers for your vehicle. This is what
is so great about our modern society: options, options, options. And for not
that much money!
With custom truck seat covers you can specify exactly what you want. How do you want the thing to fit? Do you want it nice and smooth or with a little room to breathe? If it’s too tight you may never be able to get it off. Then you’ll have to get a cover for your cover! This may be more for someone who’s already been around the block with this auto accessory. But you can at least pick out a style that you want. You could probably design it yourself if you’re so inclined. Get a sheepskin custom truck seat cover if that strikes your fancy. Yes, they make them. Pick your favorite colors, tell the company what make and model you’re driving and it shouldn’t be long before you’re passing by all the ogling eyes, envious of your sweet ride.

Ah, I wouldn't mind the custom designed cat seat-cover! My wife wouldn't appreciate it though.
I have never liked them, but they sure do save the seat of my truck in the long run.
Where can one get one of these car seat covers with cat eyes? SY
I really like that camo one you have an image of above. I find a good truckcover can really make your truck look good and add some personality.
