I posted this to the F-150 subreddit but figured I would ask here too.
I am currently trying to decide between a new King Ranch and Platinum but after sitting in several examples of each, I'm noticing a big disparity in seat feel and comfort between them. Two of the King Ranches I sat in were fresh off the transport, and I absolutely could not get the seat adjusted to be comfortable. The seat back itself felt flat and stiff, and no amount of lumbar adjustment fixed it. But then I sat in a KR at another dealer and it was a night and day difference. Unsure if it's "break in" or something, but I've never really noticed seats change over time in any other car I've owned.
Have noticed the same on the Platinum, but in general those seemed slightly better -- perhaps due to having a softer leather than the KR?
The inconsistent seat comfort is a huge hold up for me to decide between these two. I really prefer the KR interior but may be forced to go with the Platinum on seat comfort alone. Anyone else experience this while shopping for 2021s? Have never experienced this with any other car I've ever shopped for.
