Well I will say it has held up pretty well in my 250. Well, really it still looks / feels like new.

Have had excellent results with Motsenbocker's LiftOff products. Those plus a wet-dry shop vac saved a non-stainproof cream carpet into which a clumsy guest had knocked an entire carafe of red wine.

They make a variant specifically for pen ink.

Lysol - the kind you spray in the air. Wet it down and then wipe it off.
I found out about this by accident when I drove a school bus. When my bus was used on out-of-town trips it would come back with permanent marker on the seats and it would take it right off. Amazed my elementary kids because they would get upset because profanity had been magic markered on "their" bus! One minute it was there, the next it was gone.

I agree hair spray worked on my grey leather seats on the f-250. Customer smeared a lot of ink off his jeans when his pen broke in his back pocket. (I freaked out) Ink had dried completly, before the kid at the carwash turned me on to hair spray.
