head rests

Does anyone know if 2020 superduties had tilting head rests? My 2021 does not and I am 6' 3" at 240 lbs, an adjustable headrest would add just a bit more comfort driving
if 2020 had them i will order two

Some guys are pulling the headrest out and straightening the rods in a vice (or other method)

Pull them out and turn 180, that is what I have done. Or take out and discard.

I’ve done that too, and use a horseshoe neck pillow as well. Getting old ain’t for sissies.

x4 But I left the passenger because my DD doesn't care and isn't in it often enough anyway.

Not in every trim. They're present in my Platinum, and several others in this thread have them, too.
