Check craigslist and junk yards and custom shops for take offs.
Of course there are these options but shipping will be high.

Lariat is the upper trim level package on a Ford truck.
You can swap seats from many years of Super Duty trucks into yours and step up to a power seat. It is a simple matter to run the power wires that operate the seat motors.

search Craigslist auto parts section in your area for
"ford seat"
or
"F250 seat"
or
"Super Duty seat"
or
"Excursion seat"
Most of the Excursions I have seen have plush interiors & power seats and are an exact fit for the front seats into an early Super Duty truck.
Even if the driver side seat has the typical rip on the outer edge, A good trim shop can fix the foam and upholstery to make it look like new. Or if it is just dirty, they can point you in the right direction on whether it is worth it to clean it or let them re-cover it.
Also, you can buy new factory type seat covers on ebay.

search craigslist unless you want to pay for shipping.
I've been tired of sitting "on" my 2000 seats and lucked out with a pair of 2014 leather lariat power seats for 400 bucks. I've seen them in the 1-2k range on ebay. deals are out there you just have to be patient
good luck!

I've got a 2011 F350 Lariat with the 20 way power Captains seat. Really nice and firm. Hasn't started any cushion sag at all. Had to replace the lumbar support a few years agi, but that's just a piece of plastic

You can also take your seats to a re upholstery shop and get them to put in more cushion and you can pick whether you want a leather, pleather, cloth, suede, whatever kind of cover you want. If your seat doesn't have the lumber adjustment, then you can try to pick out a cheap junkyard one and just have more cushion added and a new cover. I personally wouldn't shell out money on 10+ year old seats because chances are the cushioning in those are worn out as well and it's gonna be cheaper just to get them re-upholstered.

No I don't, but I know my manual ones I can atleast adjust the lumber. I know the newer truck's have the "tilt" function for the seat.
