I'm thinking of buying a 2009-2011 F150 with four doors and AWD/4WD.
But it *must* have cooled leather seats. I'm spoiled by this option in my current car and in Central Texas, this is a must-have to prevent back sweat.

There seems to be a LOT of various F150 models.
Does anyone know which ones have cooled seats?
I'd like to minimize my searches for those specific models.

Thanks. And hello from Austin, TX!

Brochures are your friend

could not find a brochure for the 2009, but they are similar to 2010

If I were you I'd look into maybe a 2012 instead. A few things changed from 09-10 to 2011, the biggest being the new motors. The 09-10s will have the old 5.4 3V which won't have as much power or fuel economy.
I had a 2010 FX4 luxury and it didn't have cooled seats but my 2012 luxury does so you'll get more bang for your buck if you go up to a 2011-12. I'd say 12 just because it's not a first year motor, plus I'm kind of bias because I love my 2012.
2013s also got the slight face lift with the factory HIDs and they don't have the crappy SYNC anymore which would be nice. I hate SYNC with a passion.
You shouldn't be looking at much more for a 2011-13 too.
Hope that helps, good luck with the purchase!

Also, in either 12 or 13 they put forced air in the cooled seats and its much more effective. My 11 does not have the forced air, the 13 does. The difference is significant.

Thank you, folks.
It looks like only the King Ranch, Harley and Platinum models have cooled seats by default.
While it was "optional" on some Lariats.

That puts it a bit out of my price range.
Dangit.

Maybe the cooled seats in my 13 are broken because they don't cool your back. Only your butt and thats marginal at best.

My 2011 lariat has cooled seat and feel the same as the previous 13 FX4 cooled seats.

Do you you still hear that whirring sound of the blower motor when you turn on the seat?

I will say it's always felt a bit more cooler on the bottom than the back.

2011 to 2014 all have the same part number for the heated/cooled seats (minus upholstery) So they are all have forced air heating/cooling.
