I could care less how long this thing lasts. I know we are tough on our Raptors, but I don't beat on my console lid anymore than a Ford Platinum owner. If it lasts a year or two, I'd just buy another one to replace it.

I'm old, I could use the padding for my elbow (elbows if I got the armrests).

Did i miss something....?
Has there been a previous mention that these Platinum Center Consoles don't last very long?

Or just commenting...?

Just commenting. Mainly curiosity because of the different materials. Stock is a hard material while the platinum is soft and seems susceptible to more damage. The look and probably comfort gains are well worth it though. The stocker isn't comfy at all.

I just did this upgrade today. Very easy 15 minute project and good bang for the buck.

There's no way our center console lid would take any more of a beating than a Platinum. It's too bad they didn't go to a little more detail fixing up the interior of the Raptor the whole dash should be done in something nice as well.
