Sync 3 Navigation Map Update

Updated my sync 3 from 2.3 to 3.0 the other day. I thought the navigation map would also be updated. Ford wants $149.00 for the USB to update or $109.00 if I download the 15GB file to a USB.
Seems pricey to me. Anyone know of an alternative?

Sadly there isn't one. Those updates are all signed.

The regular SYNC update is just software. Nav maps are licensed from a supplier. Sadly, these nav suppliers typically very very greedy.

Thank You

Thank you
You helped me to decide not to upgrade to the navigation
I currently do not have navigation in my truck
Was think about adding up don't like the $1200 price to change the head unit
Having to 150 each time to update is not worth it
