Bryan Burch Report post Posted May 7, 2014 Got in to the social site--decided to work this time. There are several map related suggestions, some going back to 2010. Does IVT respond to these suggestions, or close them when they are adopted? How does this work? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acdii Report post Posted May 7, 2014 That $700 is for more than just maps, it includes the tie in to the entire vehicles system. Except for one thing, all it takes is the activation code and the flash card. All MFT equipped cars have the hardware already installed. The rest is software. From what I read a while back when I was looking to maybe update my 2010 maps, the DVD included some updates to the navigation firmware, but I couldn't confirm that to be true. They do include the Gracenotes that updates the album database for Sync. Still not worth $200 to update it unless you can update more than one car if you own multiple Fords. Since I have two 13 models with NAV being able to update both from one would be great, but we know that will never happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bryan Burch Report post Posted May 7, 2014 I don't know about that acdii. My titanium came with the MFT, which has all the system tie-ins in place. The navigation option gives me a $700 SD card and puts me on some VIN registry that says this vehicle has the navigation option. I wouldn't be so vocal if the navigation was at least as good as current portable navigation units. The facts are: The UI isn't intuitive--in fact it is just slow and unresponsive.The maps are old from the factory.It cost money to upgrade the maps.The navigation is outperformed by the free Google maps on my android phone. I should have got the heated steering wheel or the sunroof instead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
