2011 FX4 Interior Question

I just ordered a 2011 FX4 Screw with the cloth seats. Does anyone have this set up, and if so how do you like the cloth? It looks like a different kind of material than the normal cloth. Im in Germany, so I had to order it without seeing it in person.
Just wasnt convinced I needed to drop the cash for the Lux package to get the leather.
Does anyone have any good detail pics of the cloth? Ive searched through the photo albums, but most of those pics are exterior shots.
Thanks!

I test drove an FX4 with cloth and really liked it. The seats are really comfortable and the cloth seems durable. In fact, I like them better than the leather. However, I'm having a hard time deciding as the luxury package also includes powerfold mirrors, backup camera, dual zone climate, and remote start for only a $1230 difference over the plus package. I think you will be happy with the cloth.

I've got cloth on my 2010 FX4. Has the interior changed from 2010 to 2011? I can tell you that after having it for five months, I've been pleased with it. My interior is black with the accent stitching and I think that it looks really good.

I have an 09 FX4 with the cloth seats (looks just like the picture above) and I love it. I personally don't care for leather seats.

i Have a 2011 FX4 Screw with the cloth seats and really like them. I didn't want all the extras just to get leather too. if i do want leather i'll do custom but i'am liking the cloth.

Does any one know if the black FX seats are the same as the bucket seat option in the XLT just with different fabric? It also looks like the XLT buckets are just the 40/20/40 seats with a console replacing the '20'. None of them have the integrated arm rest like the captian's chairs used to.
thanks

I wish they would make heated cloth seats.
Up here in the north my back really likes the heated leather seat,and so much easier to keep clean of the dog's hair my golden retriever sheds constantly!!

x1,000,000. This is one of the few things I miss off of my old silverado ltz is the heated seats. That and the auto climate control is nice for when the vehicle is autostarted. Both of which make living in Alaska more bearable. With that said, I made the conscious choice to not get the lux package. I did not want leather again, and decided the cloth seats were more important to me than having heated seats or auto climate control. My experience through about 4 weeks has been positive, and the seats seem plenty comfortable to me. And you can always have heated seats installed aftermarket......

They added the katskins with heated seats for a 1000 when i bought the truck from the dealer. I think you can buy the leather seats for around 5or 600 bucks. dont quote me on that, but i thought i seen them if you do it yourself. Thats was cheaper for me to do that then add all the other options that i didnt really want.
