Ford Fabric Stress Testing
Each fabric that makes its way into a Ford has been stained, stretched, snagged, and rubbed and exposed to various other tests to make sure that it can stand up to the tests of time. Fabrics need to be able to withstand daily scraping with fingernails, keys, or other fabrics without ripping or becoming stained, and they also have to be easy to clean when things like coffee or dirt end up all over the seats. Whether on an off-road adventure in the new Ford Raptor or just running the daily commute, it’s important to have the very best both inside and out of your Ford.

While there’s no way to prevent wear and tear over a long period of time, these tests have the advantage of meaning that your new Ford will maintain its value better over time than another vehicle that hasn’t been through such rigorous testing.
