I don't even know if I can say the Ford word around here BUT I was in the junk yard today and was about to buy some Honda seats when I found a 2007 or 2008 F150 with some nice buckets. They are manual and do recline back and forward. I lost a few inches of access room getting into the back seat but my wife would be doing that mostly for kids getting in and she is 5' and 120 pounds.

The front holes in the seat mount needed opened up a little to allow using the threaded front holes. I then drilled 2 rear holes for 3/8 grade bolts and big ol' washers underneath. They fit great height and width wise and are pretty damn comfy. I'm happy.

The previous owner installed some Baja seats on a home made 1 piece seat bracket/frame. It is a damn nice setup but not my cup of tea and I cannot any 88-91 K5 seats for sale in Central, TX so I had to do something.
