Truck with the most comfortable seats you'll ever sit in . . .

2017 Nissan Titan!!!!!! (matches the seats in the Altima and Maxima)
Not that stiff scratchy material like in the Ford or Chevy.

unfortunately, too many transmission issues.

RAM Big Horn 1500 has the next best most comfortable seats.

The current tItan is 2011, it's our fourth Nissan we had a o5 frontier an 07 titan 2010 armada and 2011 titan. We traded the armada in on the f150 and the Mrs is now driving the 2011 titan. You are correct the Nissan was a good truck and even though the design is a bit old by today's standards it holds up fairly well.

I have a drivers seat from a 2012 FX4, and it is very comfortable. Since it wont fit int he 16 without major reconstruction, I am going to make a base for it and use it in my workshop. If I can figure out the wiring, then I will have a heated and cooled gaming seat.

So the grey seats , the way the front is angled up is what we need. That's how my wife's Acura was.

Those "Zero gravity" seats, right?

I sat in a Maxima. Fell in love. I want one. I wish my wifey would want to drive a bigger car.. I don't fit in her Fusion (I'm tall, not wide).

So I've been looking into putting lariat seats in the XLT. Two people so far have told me to trade in the truck. I know it's not going to be easy, but with a wiring diagram I'm sure I can keep the airbag circuits intact and wire up a power seat base from a lariat. Anyone have an opinion? Anyone do this?

Which tech package do you have, 301A or 302A? Is there a difference in the powered seats?

F150, your way ahead of me. I've been an Acura and jeep guy for the last 12 years, I'm just getting into the F150 world. A copy of the FSM would help. Any way to help me identify the Tech package?

Our 2017 XLT has the most comfortable seats we have ever had in any vehicle, but we got the buckets with a real console, rather than the split bench after test driving both. I do agree though, everyone’s back is different, and it would sure be nice if test drives could be long enough to really test the seat comfort.
