King Ranch vs Platinum

Glassman504 · Aug 19, 2017

In the market for another truck. I wanted to see what some people who own them think. Leaning toward the king ranch in blue but still not sure

Its whether you like the leather on the King Ranch that is unprotected.. some like the way the leather wears, some want the protected leather on the Platinum.

So it is still like the old 2006 still leather? It will wear like that?

Not the same. It's thinner, way thinner! Had to go thin for the AC cooling of the seats.

I think they were referring to the new platinum and king ranch interiors. But you make a good point about the leather thickness. I don't think that will be an issue though

It's the same as the platinum. Just different color. The king ranch with the ultimate package is pretty much a platinum with different leather. I personally like the king ranch color better over the platinum. And the two tone paint.

The two are pretty similar, basically whatever interior and exterior color you want will determine what you buy. I wanted a king ranch but I did not want a two tone white truck or a plain work truck white color. So that's why I went platinum. both have the tailgate accents

your truck is what got me on the search for a king ranch, just not the right options in the color I wanted.

I like the painted handles and bumpers just not sure about the two tone. So I can get a king ranch in one color. Huh didn't know that

Quick turn around. Ha I may order one I'm digging the blue and I like the color match. Anything I shouldn't get cause these trucks come with everything but a bj. The one at the dealer now has every possible option I think
