I am so glad I got the heated seats. I dont want to be freezing my ass off on the way to school :) I am suprised at how fast the seat heats up.
Do you think you should have gotten them if you didnt?

Yeah, cloth seats don't need to be heated up. Even if I had leather, I'm not sure I'd need heated seats, though. I had leather in my last car and sure it was cold when you first sit down, but it doesn't take but a minute for your own body heat to warm up the seats.
Now, what would be cool would be a heated steering wheel. Sometimes the steering wheel can get pretty brutal.

I have them. They feel great when they turn on but then it doesn't seem like it stays very warm?

When its -30c outside it sure is nice to have seat warmers while you are waiting for the car to pump out some hot air!

What's even nicer is having a 4x4 truck to drive in the snow rather than my 8.

Seat warmers in the 8 bring a gentle change in temperature. Don't expect "hot", expect luke warm. It's enough to chase the chill and feels really good when lumbar support in the power seat set at its most rigid. Seat presses into one's back sending warmth right into one's spine. Lovely sensation.

I have heated seats but I don't use them. I don't like feeling like I took a dump in my pants on my way to work. :o

You have a hot butt anyway ;)
When I lived in a cold climate I would wear heavy clothes in the winter. Not sure how a heated seat would have made much difference. I guess you could take off your coat and get that "hot tub in a blizzard" feeling. I wouldn't go out of my way to get heated seats.

i usually don't wear heavy cloths cause at work/school (i go to school) there's heating there so no point of wearing that many cloths.... it'll just beocme hot...
