It's not. The APIM only allows 2 connections. Even if you change the hardware, you'd have to alter the firmware. You'll see if you attempt to connect a USB hub.
Right, [MENTION=20670]19 Kilo[/MENTION] what you _can_ do for a little added functionality, is install the dual port (which I find more convenient anyway ...) and then wire up a little adapter for MiniUSB (F) to USB A (M), and use a USB power adapter in the power port (in the armrest).

Then you'd (potentially) have two fully functional USB ports (power + data) and a 3rd port in the front that's power only which I think would be handy for a passenger, or charging a GoPro, whatever.

So question... is there a way to create my own animated boot up screens like this? What type of files are these? Animated gifs? .mp4's? .mov's? Can someone upload one of these boot up animation files so I could take look at it and the static splash photo as well?

There is certainly a way but I've never seen it posted. Maybe nobody has figured it out yet. I hope it happens soon.

I'd love to take a stab at animating one, can someone upload one of the files here so I can see what the file type is and how it's put together?

Just did this, working great!

I enabled test settings and applied the GT theme but it doesn't stick after turning off the car.

Going to try forscan next, just made an account (for ext. lic.).

Does a normal usb obd2 reader work or is everyone using a specific one?

You need a supported OBD2 reader. Check out this thread for more details: http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61773

I've had a ton of problems with my bluetooth staying connected to the Sync 3 2.0 system in my 2017. Also my traffic and gas prices have never worked. A few people have reported improved bluetooth after going to 2.2. I finally got fed up with it enough to risk updating to 2.2. Sadly it didn't fix my bluetooth issues but my traffic works now. I haven't checked the gas prices yet, but I'll report back on that for other 2017 owners.
So if the OP wants to update the first post and let everyone know that the update works on 2017 Nav cars, feel free.
