That's exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you. What year is yours?
Seems like a lot of 2019's have that feature.
I was lucky enough to purchase 2019 headrests from another member here. They match my 2024 Stealth's interior almost perfectly.

My 2024 originally came with the non-adjusting headrests, and I hated them. Now they're just sitting in a box until I hit 100 posts so I can put them up *cheap* in the For Sale forum. :cool::happy3:

Hey Grizguy:

A little "off subject", I guess, but you mentioned "My 24 F550 rides HARD". Is that an F550 Pick-Up or just a HD truck, of some other kind? I did NOT know that Ford had built another F550 Pick-Up. Is that what yours is?

We owned a 2004 Ford F550 Fontaine Pick-Up (conversion w/ Fiberglass bed) but it had an Air-Ride rear suspension. So, it surely was NOT super smooth but NOT harsh like my F600 flat-bed dump truck either. We loved that truck but it got old and problematic so, it was sold a few years back. Thanks for your knowledge, Lance

F550's come in various configurations, my son has one thats a single cab with a 14' bed and contractor tool boxes down both sides. he built a cab-over camper on it.

My 2019 Platinum front and rear bucket seats are the most comfortable vehicle seats I've sat in.
Regarding headrests, mine are like mention. You can pull forward until it reaches a release and they spring back up. They are not totally straight up and down, but close. I had to turn the headrests around on my Explorer as they were too far forward, even if adjusted all the way back.

Hi Mr Big:

That's great that your seats are so comfortable! We ended up buying a 2024 Expy MAX Limited instead of the Platinum, that we started out to buy, because we didn't want the HUGE center screen, nor do without A/C & Radio manual knobs (all digital in 2024 Platinum's) plus the ugly (to us) flat spoke wheels that came on the 2024 Platinum. So, maybe the Platinum seats are better than the Limited seats. Don't know? Our Limited seats ARE comfortable but not the 'most comfortable' we ever sat in.

I think the most comfortable seats that I ever sat in were the black cloth seats in our 1972 Lincoln Mark IV, when it was new. Then, the second-best seats were in our 2012 Expedition EL, that we just sold (as far as comfort goes). Our 2024 Expedition MAX Limited seats ARE comfortable and seem bolstered on the sides to keep you more centered in them as you corner and go around curves on the highway at speed, so that's a plus + over the 2012 Expedition EL.

It is also wonderful that your headrests are adjustable in your 2019. Fixed headrests like in most 2024's, that we drove, would have been a deal killer for me. Fortunately, the 2024 Expy MAX Limited that we bought had the video screens in them so, they came stock as 'adjustable' headrests. Thanks for the info, Lance
