• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Dune color vs light gray color?

I have two young kids with the light grey color. So far we’re surviving…. lol. It’s been almost 2 years. I have to clean periodically but nothing crazy.

But when I got mine in Gravity Grey, it was only the light grey or black as available options. I think Dune was introduced and I might have tried that.

You wouldn't happen to have any photos of the seats would you. My wife is really nervous about these looking nice in a few years. She had a Toyota Camery light gray and they didn't hold up well. 😒

They both look really nice, and I think you might have a little more margin for hiding scuffs and stains with the Dune vs the Gray, but in the end I don't think it's a huge difference. Get what you like, leather is cleanable. That said, we went with Dune because to us it was more rich-looking, and the Gravity Gray/Dune combination is pretty rare (they've only made a couple hundred of those last I checked).

Sorry I haven’t been on here in a couple days. Yea I can snap some pictures. My seat is probably the “worst” with the blue dye from my jeans, but even then it’s not that noticiable. Every now and then when I remove the kids’ car seats there might be some dirt from the shoes of the little one (rear facing) but it comes off really easily with leather cleaner and a microfiber towel. It hasn’t been a nuisance at all for me.

I have the same setup as you minus the nightfall package. and my dune brown had held up really well with my two kids that make messes with any kind of food and the leather has cleaned up real well. i used some of the chemical guys interior cleaner and it did an amazing job. i have had mine since April without any seat or leather issues. my only issue is the 2nd row temperature control/lights seems to be shaking at 50 MPH and making a vibration sound. anyone run into the same thing? plus i can snap some pictures of my dune brown as well.
 
I finally remembered to take a picture! These are my seats. I haven’t used the leather cleaner since we got back from our road trip in mid July.

Rubbing it with a microfiber towel and leather cleaner that I learned about on this forum and it comes right up.

My younger kid is rear facing so the seat back will be dirty cuz of her shoes. But again with the cleaner and a quick rub with the cleaner and the microfiber towel and it’s gone.

These seats have been easier to take care of than I thought they would going in. No regrets here.
 
The dune brown has been great for my kids. The crumbs they leave behind blend right in with the leather. I hardly notice them between vaccuumings.
