You don't rest your head on the headrest while driving?

It's a head restraint.

Never.

My head is on a swivel so I'm aware of cars around me. If my head is laid back on the head restraint, the only direction I'm seeing is forward with a bit of peripheral vision. I wear glasses, so I'd see even less by just looking straight. Besides, if my head laid on the restraint, it would put me to sleep because I'd be too relaxed. I'd imagine massaging seats would relax me too much also!

Good idea to start upkeep and maintenance now. I just refinished the wheel on the daily with 58k and couldn’t be happier with the results. Looks and feels and feels new.
Well done there...holy cow. That looks great.

Colourlock (mild) leather cleaner plus Colourlock leather brush. I clean the steering wheel whenever I clean the driver's seat (every 7-10 days).

My initial steering wheel I had bmw replace it when it was under the 4 year maintenance plan. Mine start tearing all over the place. Now just use meguiars leather cleaner and it's been fine. Other parts of my leather did not do so well as I didn't keep up the maintenance as well.

You're never cruising down an open highway and just let your head rest on the head rest/raint?
