Seat Question (already searched)

I know this is an incredibly simple question, but I couldn't find anything about it with search. My '03 should be here soon and I just want to know how far the seats recline. Are they comfortable, or am I gonna be sitting straigt up every time I get in? Sorry for the newbie question.

You will love the seats, awesome for long rides. They are some of the best factory seats around. I just wish they would offer a true bucket option.

I've done 13 hour trips and stepped out as refreshed as when I got in. I'm 6'2" so I think that the F150 is one of the FEW vehicles that fit tall people.

Thanks guys. I have to admit that I was a bit worried. I'm 6'1 200lbs and don't feel like having to squeze into my daily driven vehicle.

Yes I agree. The 03 seats are some of the nicest OEM seats I have ever used.

Big diff between them and the gen1 2001 SCREW

The 04's better be as good or better or they will really hear it.

I had back surgery (fusion) about a year and a half ago and the seats in my truck are very comfortable... I drive my truck home to NC for the weekend about once a month. It's a 550 mile one way, 1100 mile round trip drive. My wife has a 2000 Honda Accord EXV6 with leather seats, the Lightning is MUCH better on my back than her car is, even she would rather we drive the truck on trips.
Did I mention we have a 2 year old, so there is a baby seat in the middle during all these trips?

I'm just shy of 6' and 200lbs.... I'm sure you will love your seats.

The seats suck, and after you sit in it for a while and decide how much you hate them, and throw a big fit. Calm down and remember my name so you can email me as to where I need to come to get the truck from you.
