If you've been following along with the buildup of our Ultimate F-150 Work Truck over the last few issues, you know that this is one build where we're taking day-to-day functionality very seriously. We want this truck to be right at home on a construction site, and able to take all the abuse its future owner can dish out. Therefore, when it came time to upgrade our interior, we turned to the guys at Coverking. They set us up with a full array of black fitted seat covers, the backs of which are covered in military-developed MOLLE webbing and modular storage pouches. Now, our seats can not only shrug off the job site's dirt and dust, but also provide quick access to tools, hardware, and supplies. Follow along to see how these easy-to-install covers gave our interior a tough new look. To enter for a chance to win this truck, go to www.facebook.com/masterlock.
