This is a suggestion for those lacking a GPS system. Since its CyberMonday, you might be able to get a deal.
We recently rented a car for a 30 day trip in Canada and the rental agency wanted $10.95 a day for GPS navigation. Since my 2015 F150 didn't' have a GPS system, I decided to buy a Garmin GPS for about $200 to use while renting then have a GPS when I returned home. WOW! What a great idea. The Garmin comes with lifetime updates and is far superior to the system in my wife's Subaru as it has better options (and a much more pleasant voice)! As an older driver, having a GPS helps navigation and is recommended my mature driver training. Plus, it paid for itself by avoiding the rental fee. In addition, I preplanned all daily routes before leaving home, adding desired stops and route alternatives. I packed it in my carryon - no issues with TSA and I had it in case my luggage was delayed.
Hope this suggestion helps... PS - I plan to keep this GPS and not buy one of the factory options in the future, as its exactly what I wanted in a nav system.
Couldn't agree more! If you want even more information on your GPS screen then buy the Garmin 100k topo maps and load them into the SD slot.
Here is a shot of the screen on my 8" Garmin using the City Navigator maps that come with the unit:
From the exact same location, changing over to the Topo map. Especially if you're exploring an unfamiliar area, who wouldn't want the additional information?
Even the GPS on your phone is better than the OEM Ford option, and if you have CarPlay, it will show on the infotainment screen. There is zero sense in paying for the factory GPS option, or paying to upgrade to it.
Hello, For 2015 F150, we recommend two ways to add GPS system to your car.
Firstly, you can add a Carplay upgrade module without any modification to your original system. With Carplay you can get GPS Navigation, make calls, send and receive messages, and enjoy your favorite music. All on your car's built-in display.
Secondly, You can get a portable Carplay Screen: https://www.carputech.com/collections/carplay-screens

I’ve actually been happy with the factory nav in my 17. I’ve done a few map updates, which admittedly are a pain to install and overpriced, but they’ve been fairy accurate, detailed and best of all work off of satellite when cell coverage is poor
