![]() The nav system itself (without Sync) has excellent voice recognition and offers control over virtually all features of the radio/nav including entering destination address via voice control while driving down the road (no need to unlock nav entry). The only part I still have to finish is hooking up Sync. I now have everything including the voice recognition/control features and backup camera (in fact I have two cameras on my truck) working. The radio/amp install was pretty much plug and play (requires a special harness). I installed the Clarion/Xanavi harddrive based system from a 2010 truck in my 2008 truck about a month ago. If you had the 09 truck, you could get the new hard drive based unit manufactured by Clarion/Xanavi.I have a 2008 job 1 F350 King Ranch that originaly had the Pioneer based nav and audiphile system. I sold several on ebay but do not currently have any to sell. Other then that, the unit can be configured to all of the options of your specific truck. Since your vehicle did not have nav or SYNC, you will not be able to have voice activation because it is done through the steering wheel controls. With having the 08 truck, you would be stuck with the Pioneer dvd based navigation system manufactured for Ford. here's a link to the first of three: The other two are near this one. ![]() I got it all, nav radio, Sirius module, both antennas, programmed and plug and play for less than $1400.00Ībout nine or ten months ago I made several posts with pictures of the process on the Super Duty forum. All was what would have been in the truck from the factory had I ordered it with the Nav system, save the GPS antenna which is all hidden under the dash anyway. I bought all from eBay excepting the Sirius antenna. I added the Sirius antenna and module at the same time. I changed the factory premium sound 6 CD system to the Ford nav system. Eventually am going to install the 360 degree camera that hooks up to the android unit.My truck has just the regular CD Player, could I upgrade that to the OEM touch-screen nav system? (at least I think it is a touch screen?) Would it be a big/expensive thing to do?I'm not far from you here in Lincoln tonight. I have a Blackvue front and rear dashcam and can watch them in real time on the android screen wirelessly and download files to the unit. After I paid, he sent me links to files by messenger and it took about 1.5 hours and 10 or 15 steps with him responding instantly by Messenger with links and answers to questions as he guides you step by step. ![]() He even modified the splash screen vehicle image to my exact color and graphics of my truck. ![]() Ī two weeks later, I also upgraded to Sergey's custom firmware for $100 and now have a flawless system with wireless updating of Android versions when released. My email asking about the GPS sensor location was answered pretty quickly. Their customer service was not bad although didn't have too many problems. Only change I made was that I relocated the GPS sensor to under the dash above the glove box rather than stuck by the magnet on the back of the unit as Phoenix advised. Was plug and play to install but then I had experience taking apart the dash to replace both blend motors before. Google maps work fine but like Grover's voice on waze better. You have ruled out the 12.1" Phoenix Android tesla style for the 2011-2014? Apple Carplay (wife), Android Auto (me) work fine although I now use Waze.
