There is even a couple of TSB's out on the seats which I had done and problems remain.

Do a google search on the Ford F-150 2015 and up seats.
I beg to differ. My seats look great and are quite comfortable for the 4 hours per time I've driven. As for cooling the back, I'm not sure if mine do but already plan to have the dealer do the TSB next time it is in.

Bottom line - I have no complaints about the seats. I've had two Mercedes and one Nissan where a big part of the purchase decision was seat comfort, and the truck's seats are easily as comfortable as those - if not better.

Well I come from a long line of Lariat's and these are the worst seats I have had. I guess it's a good thing I never owned a Mercedes or Nissan if you think your Lariat seats are confortable.. I spent 4 hours in my truck today and my butt is still sore.. You sure missed out on some nice seats like Ford used to use.

I've always had cloth seats in my trucks, and I was impressed with the quality of cloth in the XLT line. I'm interested in getting feedback from Lariat owners before making a decision. Cloth seats don't allow for seat heater options, and leather may keep value longer. Those considerations aside -any input on the cloth v leather debate?

I owned a F350 Lariat and a few other US brand Leather trucks and
id say they were all equal in quality .IMO US does a pretty sturdy leather seat
however Fords were not great on my back like my GM was on long trips
However I switched to an XLT this go around as well as a mustang GT and Ford does an awesome cloth seat too
and its comfortable for the long haul also
