This year I finally had enough and spent the $ for 'MyFord Touch Sync 2 to Sync 3 Upgrade' found at a few different sites. It was a 20 minute install and works great with everything...so worthwhile for me.

His question was about Sync 2...not Sync 3 and whether it is installed in what trucks.

And to answer his question, Sync 2 does not support Apple CarPlay.

I don't think we read the OP the same way. Now that I look at it again, it appears he's quoting an article that has a typo about Sync 2, when it should say "Sync 3 version 2.2".

Exactly.

That should say "Sync 3 version 2.2".

I loaded Sync 3 version 2.2 into my 2016 Taurus that came with Sync 3. Android Auto worked.

What upgrade did you use and how does it work? There seem to be several choices and price ranges.....

Thanks
