But, if you use it heavily, you will probably suck up the 10 gigs of service every month.

If im not mistaken, sync 3 will display the turn by turn on your dash from your phone using apple carplay or android auto now also.

connected = uses the built in cell modem. You have to pay for a subscription.
built in connected = same as above but Ford includes a three or four year subscription with the truck.
in both cases the maps might actually be downloaded to the vehicle. But the truck talks to Ford before you can actually do anything.
So while all Lariats with Sync4 have NAV, I think you have to pay to use it. I also don’t know how much the subscriptions cost.
there are apps like TomTom that you can download the maps on your phone so a cell service isn’t needed. They are also subscription based. Another option is google maps. You can download maps in a small area if you know there won’t be signal.
edit: the NAV subscription is separate from the hotspot feature. The data used by the truck is free to you. Same *** the FordPass app stuff.

On Google maps as long as you have signal when you start your route it will keep up even after you loose signal. That is what I do now out in BFE west Texas, get my map going in town then when I get out where there is no signal it still works. Just can't load a new route till you get signal again.
