Backseat Height

I have an 05 F150 king ranch. Everytime someone over 5 ft 10" asks why their head is touching the ceiling when sitting in the backseat. Has anyone noticed this in our trucks. I'm not sure if it is all crew cab 150s or just the king ranches. I climbed back their this afternoon and did find it to very uncomfortable because of the ceiling. The backseat sits much higher than the front seats even when the front seats are adjusted as high as they go.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

What model year? I'm about 5'11" and I can sit in the back of my truck with at least one inch of clearance. I don't care for the "upright" angle of the seat back, but that's a whole different issue.

Its a 2005. Most of the people that sit in the back are under 5'11", so its not a big deal. But I have also gotten complaints about the angle of the seat back as well.

Well after looking into upgrading the audio system in the rear, I found out the problem with the headroom in the back. Apparently the previous owner added spacer to the bench to fit subs under it. After hours of unbolting everything in the back, I got it all back together and love it now.
