Hi all,

I was recently rear ended, lost my 98 F150 with 180k miles on it. :( I lost a friend, no doubt!

Fortunatley, a co-worker sold me his 2001 4X4, F150. Great shape, and a great deal.

Now, I feel like I have a new truck again, (without a payment!)

My question is in regards to the stering wheel. It's leather, and pretty worn out. Looks kinda nasty actually. My old truck didn't have leather, and when it wore down, I tried the 'wheelskins' cover, and didn't like it. I'm hoping there's a better option with a leather steering wheel? Can it be restitched to look like new? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I've used Wheelskins covers on all of my cars for the last 12 years, even the ones that come with leather steering wheels as I like a fat wheel.

I have one on my 07 F150 XL and LOVE it.
