Android Auto is cool but the apps for it are very, very limited at this time. Waze will support it but who knows when. I don't bother using it unless I'm using Maps.
I get that it's new and there are few apps that use it. I won't be getting my car for 6-12 months and I listed to music and use the GPS/Maps/waze every day. I can run it from my phone but with a new car I expect to be able to have it all integrated.

yours:

To have Android Auto
Yeah, that's what I thought.
So, I'd need to upgrade the head unit and get Sync 3.
Not a whole lot of effort considering what it will take to get the coolers and other track pack features added to a Tech pack car.
OR just buy a '17 model. :)

By the time you get your car you should be all set. Already supports Maps and GPS. Waze is the missing piece but it was announced that they will support AA (Not surprising since they are now owned by Google) and that is a critical application for me.

Tank,

Unfortunately, we haven't been informed of the hardware details yet. You could try your local dealer and see if they have any info since they're the ones installing it. Make your voice heard regarding the CarPlay update at http:social.ford.com

The transmission and cooler fix is out of my scope, but our Ford counterparts can help with that. Please reach out to them by:
