That is available here at American Trucks as well for a little under $100.Now, speaking of price, guys, this system comes in right around $1300. You do need to purchase an adapter for this unit. And, if your truck is equipped with the B&O sound system, this unit will not directly plug and play with that. However, you do retain control over the system using steering wheel controls. So you're not gonna get that functionality with this unit. And, just so you know, you can watch video through Netflix or streaming from a memory stick but the system will not let you do that if the vehicle is in motion as a safety feature.Now, a couple of other things I think are worth mentioning is that this system is not compatible with Apple car play or Ford Sync. You can also stream various entertainment that you might wanna watch or listen to either through Bluetooth through your phone or you can use the USB connection and connect a flash drive and stream music that way. So, you don't necessarily have to use the iGO navigation, if you wanna stick to something that may be more familiar to you, I personally use Waze because I like the real-time traffic updates, but you could also use Google Maps as well.

And speaking of landmarks, the preloaded software includes up to 17 million landmarks and waypoints already built into the system. And it also includes points of interest that on the map will appear like 3D icon buildings or other landmarks.
Now, this Navos navigation system also comes preloaded with iGO Nextgen navigation software.And what's really interesting about that proprietary software is that it takes advantage of this larger screen by giving you a 3D mode on its maps. You have HDMI USB inputs, you have also 5-volt pre-amp setups if you wanna add front, rear, and subwoofer speakers to your truck. And not only does this unit come off with a nine OE-grade finish and appearance, you have room to expand with this unit.
Like I said, this nice 12-inch anti-glare screen is really the big selling point, The largest screen you're gonna get from the factory from Ford I think is around seven or eight inches. And you're not gonna find a screen that size in an F-150 from the factory in those model years. Now, there are more affordable options out there if you're looking to add navigation or other types of features to your truck, but let's face it, you're not gonna get that crisp, clean screen and a nice, original equipment appearance that you're gonna get with this Navos unit.Now, I think this unit, with all that being said, is really gonna appeal to the F-150 owner out there who wants to give their truck that top-of-the-line appearance. Now, the most obvious feature that's gonna draw your attention to this unit is that large,12-inch screen.
