I ordered my 2021 F-150 Platinum on May 10th. It was delivered to the dealership Jan 14th. It was upgraded to a 2022. It was a long wait but it is a beautiful truck chocked full of amazing technology. The Blue Cruse has a bit of a learning curve to it but it is really neat when you get the hang of it.

I will. As soon as the snow gets off it! LOL, It is a two wheel drive, so I did get to try out electronic locking rear end..

I would also like to know this. I ordered them but couldn’t find a ton of people’s actual experience with them. I have a decent amount of remote job site working coming up where there’s a good chance the dog and I could end up truck sleeping here and there, haha

It depends on what you're trying to do. I would say for sleeping, they are more comfortable in the reclined position.

I’m 6’1” and for me when driving no difference I leave them all the way back and don’t notice them at all. My wife on the other hand is 5’1” and leaves hers out about an inch even in the upright position. That’s a long way of saying it gives you options from not any change to allows for changes to make you more comfortable. One note I‘ve seen reports they don’t recline much more than standard seats remember for max recline the back seats need to be folded up or the limit the recline.

When you say leaves them out are you referring to the lumbar support?

I spend the winters in Florida! No icy white stuff down there and I never get it off the road here.
I am just curious, does having 4WD take anything from the vehicle, vs. 2WD? I don't live in a snowy area, but I think it's better to have and never use than not have if needed.

2WD gets better mileage and rIdes smoother. Adding the electronic locking differential makes getting a boat up a slippery launch a breeze. This is my forth Ecoboost, lots power and pulling capabilities.
