Speaking of the past what ever happened to "Corinthian Leather"

Global warming killed all the Corinthian Beasts, so no more Corinthian Leather.

Actually, not all old gimmics are bad. I have a classic Mercedes with pleather seats, and they lasted 40+ years and still look like new (seat frame broke before upholstery did). Simply amazing.

No leather, wood, chrome or textiles on my FJ40 either. Just turn on the garden hose, both inside and out, to give it a good cleaning.
