Ford Adding Android Auto and Apple CarPlay to 2016 Models via OTA Update

[furiousyellow]

Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car.

Yeah but I meant for the older models that didn't come with it.
