Forgive me if I missed a prior thread on this. I did some searches but couldn't find the answer.
I'm looking to purchase an Explorer later this year and I've read that certain 2016 Ford models can go to the dealership and get a software update that will enable Apple CarPlay on them. But I can't seem to figure out if it's all 2016 models or only certain ones.
When I look at 2016 Explorers, I see models with a large display up top with just a few buttons adjacent to it like this:
Or the Sony version in the Limited trim like this:
Or more commonly, one with a smaller screen and a lot of buttons on either side of the display like this:
So my question is, are all of these capable of getting the latest (SYNC 3 I think?) update that enables CarPlay? Or just some of them?
And is there any word on whether this update has been extended to previous model years before 2016 yet (or if it ever will)?
Thanks!
