You had to pay $500 for stuff that was standard and was deleted? Have you actually been in a 2023 Ultimate? My 2016 F150 King Ranch had all that ambiant stuff and you could pick colors. My 2021 F150 Platinum had ambiant - one color no options. 2023's built without heated steering wheel, no lighted numbers on auto climate control knobs, no massaging seats. There are other things, just going from memory from the bellyaching on 14th gen and f150forum. I had numerous issues with my 2021 F150 Platinum 4X4 Powerboost that the dealers couldn't figure out how to fix and I tried to go with a 2023 F150 King Ranch 3.5l Ecoboost and I wouldn't accept a deleted truck. Bought the GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate and couldn't be happier. Better interior than the Platinum. Better infotainment system. Better hands-free driving - Supercruise vs BlueCruise. And both my King Ranch and Platinum had the pano roof. Both rattled ( unfixable) and both smoking hot in the Florida summers that required the shade to be closed all the time. 

I paid ~$300 for the SCCM and HVAC unit to enable the heated steering wheel, the wheel itself already came with the element.  Ridiculous parts shortages but I could order the parts to my door within 3 days.  Ambient lighting came in the truck, one color, but they removed the few areas mentioned over the years and I added them all back in, simple as plugging them in.  I have been in 3 Ultimate's which is why I ordered the Raptor.  My 2020 had the "ultimate package" before the refresh happened, the new interior is way nicer obviously.  I just think the lack of luxury features compared to other brands doesn't describe a truck as Ultimate.  I hate Ram's but their interior is super nice with a ton of features.  When it comes to comfortable seats, Ram crushes GM but I wont ever own one.

GM seats are by a far margin the worst out of Ford and Dodge, heck all you need to do is look at the seat cushion and how the entire seat base is only like 10" thick. I remember my 05 silverado and the lazy boy recliner seats the gmt-800's had in comparison to the yugo seats these trucks now come with, it is sad....

Just finished a drive from fort worth to San Antonio and while the seats from the refresh are better than before, I was hurting pretty bad by the end of the drive. The cushion is just too short and too firm.  Butt and legs ache. 23 silverado high country.

Not newer GM seats, my 2024 gmc 2500hd seats are Horrible!

The 2000 2500hd seats, 2003 1500 seats and 2004 1500 seats where 10x more comfortable than newer GM seats.  People need to be Fired for charging Loyal GM Buyers this much Money for trucks with seats worse than a Chevette, just Terrible!!!

Interesting to hear many people say GM seats are not that comfortable.

Every reporter says Rams have the most comfortable seats.

Older adults swear by Ford Seats.

What about the Tundra?

 

After plenty of seat time in these trucks, which would you say has the most comfortable leather seats?

We had a 22 Tundra Limited and the seats were okay, The were like sitting on a couch. The 23 Silverado LTZ seats are pretty good. We have done some longer drives and they were okay as well. We have fully adjustable seats in the VW EV and those are much better with lumbar and large side bolsters.

My 2018 Silverado seats were much more comfortable than my 2021 GMC Denali’s. Sad.

Sad to sad I rented a Nissan Sentra and the seats were much more comfortable especially on our 8 hour drive.

 

Same here. That's the car hertz gave me on my last trip. Pretty basic setup and 1000 times more comfortable. After 2 hrs in my truck seat I'm beat.

Seats are a personal choice when it comes to whats comfortable or not.  Seats are like clothes, some just fit better that others.  Its like when I was looking for a new recliner for home, I must have sat in over a dozen in 3 different stores and several brands before I found the one the was the most comfortable to me and bought it.
