    That is how I felt at first. The seats are firm and require quite a while to break in. They will take to your shape. Much better than the seats in my GF's SUV that felt great when new, but now they are like sitting on a marshmallow.

    Just traded in my 2005 F150 supercab w/40k miles on it for 2011 Taco DC TRD. My Ford had a lot of better options but I was willing to sacrifice for better gas mileage and dependability. My Ford had engine trouble @1,000 miles and my extended warranty was expiring.

    Here's my list that of options my F150 had that my new truck doesn't:

    heated mirrors
    tailgate lock
    backup sensors (sensors are way better than the b/u camera)
    bed light
    power seats
    power sliding rear window
    auto headlights
    rear cigarette lighter for the kid's games, dvd player, cell phones, etc.
    casette player :D (still have some good old tape mixes)
    power pedals (no biggie though)
    Keyless entry pad
    auto door locks after you put the truck in drive

    The damn CLUTCH!!!! Worst clutch i have ever had in a vehicle!

    Slips all the time,
    doesnt grab when u dump it,
    feels like you arent even pushing in on a clutch,
    u cant ride it (which u need to be able to do sometimes),
    its pointless to double clutch it,
    takes a second or two sometimes to even engage


    Overall its pretty shitty!!!!

    -Wheel Beaings
    -Front diff
    -Floating brake pads
    -2 peice drive shaft, what gives it's not a limo

    Superfical things
    -No iPod plug
    -Bed and plastic wheel wells make all sorts of noise
    -AC in bed but not cab huh?
