Wish List...

anyone else wish the heated seats had either a timer or a high/low setting? personally i'd like to see a 10 minute timer, that way my bum only gets partially cooked. any comments...?

I agree 110% on that. The heated seats are WONDERFUL but, by the time you realize that your butt is too warm, it's too late. Those things will ABSOLUTELY COOK YOUR A$$! I love using them on the cold mornings but, I can remember (in recent memory), days driving to work nearly sweating because I left it on too long.

The heated mirrors... I agree Mike. Why didn't they make them heated? Just makes sense. The wiring is there...

I'd like to see the cooled seats in the KR as well. The navigators (or one I've seen) has chilled seats. Which would be killer for the hot Kentucky summers (very humid and very hot).

Oh well... until then...

Yes, the heated seats need to be regulated so they can run on lower settings. There should also be a Memory feature like the Expedition so multiple drivers can get in and out easier. I would also have them up the engine/trans/brakes etc. for towing more or start to offer a KR F-250/350, so those who want this level of luxury but need to haul more can.

I would like the heated mirrors, memory features, and also the power rear slider, all standard.

It's the Blackwood that has the cooled seats... would be very nice here in hot Orlando, FL. And it doesn't get cold enough to leave the heated seats on longer than 10 minutes. By then my a$$ starts to sweat.

don't the heated seats have different levels, and i'm quite surprised to see they don't have heated mirrors on such a nice truck. you are sure right about the butt cookers on the kranch, you don't even need to turn the heat on when you turn those babies on.

It has nothing to do with cellulite. Women are cold-blooded, so they have to bask in the sun to absorb the warmth, just like reptiles. Men are already hot blooded so we don't have to have all the warmth.

i've rode in your truck sarah, they are butt cookers, i could only last about 10 minutes. would have been excellent to warm me up before a workout.
