Then they can make revenue by selling us the apps to control the seats, etc.

IMO, they aint

Like sitting on a thinly padded 2x12

Change happens in every industry. And if you wait to purchase because of what may come in the future, than you will never buy anything, as there always is something coming that will be better, faster, cheaper, smaller/larger on the horizon.

Just enjoy your truck and quit stressing over it. You will be happier.
