I don’t know if this works but I figured it’s better to ask you guys. On trucks equipped with max recline seats
1. remove front head rests.
2. Slide front seat all the way forward towards the dashboard.
3. put down rear seat.
4. adjust front seat to the max recline position.

if all 4 above is done, i Am assuming that it will be one long bed to sleep on with feet stretched. Am I correct?

Interesting thought. I'd like to see pictures of all the seats configured like this.

However, I believed the Max Recline feature is designed to be used with the rear row seat bottoms folded up, and the front seats folded all the way back/down.

Here is a video I took of a Limited F-150 with the Max Recline seat option a few months back while at an auto show.

I wish they would offer those as options on Lariats. If they did, I would be camping in my truck.

Can you remove the headrest on trucks that have speakers built into the headrest? I haven’t received mine yet but was thinking you can’t.

No, you don't remove headrest (can't even do it, if you have B&O Unleashed with speakers in headrest).

You fold up rear seats (every youtube I saw they NEVER realized that).

Then just fully recline the seat.

It is not mean to be a real bed, there is no feet/calf support.

You cannot. You can raise them up slightly for height, but they are fixed into the seat back.

Me too. That is an option I would’ve opted for if they made it available on the Lariat.

I also found that I needed to flatten the fold flat storage under the rear seat (which meant removing everything inside). At least if I wanted the front seat fully down, otherwise it was pressing down on the storage lip.

Does anybody know how to add Max decline seats? What would be the parts list? I see certain parts here and there I have a 23 F150 platinum that was supposed to come with them, but they didn’t have them because of Covid.

I'm not 100% on this but you most likely need to replace the entire seat frame and possibly the seat cover also.
