after driving the f150 for almost a month the steering on my 2015 steering felt really stiff but now it feels somewhat loose...i guess my muscles got used to it again

or maybe if the car isn't driven for a month then the steering becomes heavier

There's probably nothing wrong with your car. I have a 16 and I also would not describe the steering as particularly heavy. I do remember reading about the 15-16 changes and this article was saying that the steering feel was reduced from earlier models. I'm going to try to drive some earlier FRSes to see if there's a difference and what people seem to rave about . On the other hand i have never found the 16 to be rough riding and it surprised me from the first test drive just because the earlier models were said to have a harsh ride
