Odometer stop

Hi i am new here and new to ford vehicles!! I recent purchased a 2006 lincoln navigator limited edition and am wonderin if there is a way that the odometer can b stopped to hide actual mileage? I am not looking to do this!! As i said i am new to ford i was a gm guy b4 and know of a wire on the instument panel that could b cut and a switch put in and with the flip of a switch literally the odometer would stop climbing, so now to my point, with the knowledge of this i know to look for it when purchasing a gm vehicle, and am wondering if there any such thing with ford vehicles i can look for to see if this was done to my navigator. Thanx for all the help!!

You may be able to stop the Odo but I am sure the ECM will be recording the actual mileage
