They're, you know, ok. Around town, don't notice. I do long road trips occasionally and they aren't great, but still not a big deal. Coming home from the gym or after chainsaw work? Just right. I have some leather ones on the way that a member here found on eBay, so we'll see. But the rubber ones are fine. Part of keeping costs down.
Also not a deal breaker for me but it would be nice to have the rubber feeling

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and will hopefully be new to Fords pretty soon. Looking at getting my first f-150 and the STX package really caught my eye for the price. For those of you that have one, how do you like it? Do you wish you went with an XLT/XTR instead?
I'm in Canada (Ontario) if it makes a difference...

Really love my STX ( Strip The eXtras! ) it was the best value for the money with everything I needed to have. Sometimes I do wish I had gone the extra mile and went with an XLT or Lariat. Like others I've done some mods, I upgraded my steering wheel to the platinum one. Also added remote start. It's a good base to start playing around with. My only con is the ride quality on the 20" rims, they look awesome but the 17's are much smoother.
PS. One of the really great things about the STX is I think it has the best grille of any of the models.

Re the door panel arm rests. I’m 5’9”. I’ve never used them. They are too low for me using the 10/2 steering wheel position. I rest my arms on the window door edge.
I do love the style of the STX. Especially the grille. It doesn’t look like you had a crash into the Armco and it stuck to the front of the car. 😁

Love my STX. My truck is mostly a work truck and the STX had all the accouterments I wanted. I also was going to do some mods, so why pay extra for stuff that was going to get replaced. I would have done purchased the same truck all over again.
