I disagree, they look almost exactly like the 2018 seats. If you check out Ford's site and view the interior, they're almost identical.

Yeah I guess when you compare them to the blue seats they are different. Would be a shame tho if ford boasts these new recaros then it’s only
Blue. Gonna have some angry people

Those look like black recaros. Sides seem more bolstered then last seats. And it’s like the avalanche grey of blues the PB. Diff shades depending on angle and light. I’m gonna love it. Will really pop if opti coated

How much are you expecting to pay for Opti-Coating? I was thinking of ceramic coating mine as soon as I get it.

My 2017 was 1550 for opti coat +. Wheels were an extra 150 or so

Someplace it was mentioned that the blue package includes recaros and we haven't seen that mentioned elsewhere as a general 2019 upgrade. TBH this "recaros" look like at most a badging and special fabric to me, so I wouldn't get too wound up about it.

The Recaro’s only come with the blue package. The standard seats are super comfortable and more appropriate for a truck in my opinion.

Not gonna lie the king ranch seats are noticeable more comfortable with the raptors. I took a test drive of the king ranch to see what the tech package would be like then I went to sit in the raptor with the orange interior. The king ranch was softer leather and a softer feel, felt like I was sitting IN the seat instead of ON the seat, but it also had lots of support. Me and their person I brought with me said the same thing.
So I got the recaros hoping they’d bring me closer to king ranch comfort or CTS V comfort in my dads car. If it was up to be I’d have them put king ranch seats with raptor badging in there [emoji23]

I dont think the "Recaros" are the actual seat......it is the Recaro alcantara coverings that is blue. Hence I would assume the only difference between the blue package and the 802A seats is the covering, bolsters and seat in general will likely be exactly same.

The blue is just an accent package in my opinion, it is not a seat package.

Hmm.. I hope not. I thought recaro was an actual seat like it is in every other car that I’ve seen. The alacantra seems like the covering of the seat to me. It’s also described as heavily bolstered. From the photos between the orange accent and the recaros there surely seems to be a difference to me in terms of the padding and construction of the seats b6aebeb8064647c665cfe271937436ab.jpg2a21a05f5cbd3c329a40a1ef22451825.jpg

Look at the "B&O Play" system - essentially standard factory components with a sound "tune". Just saying.

They are recaros seats. Not recaro taxing bucket seats like the gt350 option but they are obviously more bolstered and a diff design from the normal raptor seat
