@3:48 That button links the front and rear A/C to have the same settings. Unlinked, they can have independent settings. The recirculation button is on the far right of the screen (top button)
No digital key. Maybe at have the physical keys in the vehicle. With fordpass you can start the vehicle lock and unlock the vehicle from anywhere. But as soon as you get in the vehicle it requires a physical key to drive
Doesn't look like you can set Google Maps to satellite mode when done natively. I know, some people hate satellite, but I strongly prefer it as I'm a visual navigator, so seeing the landmarks is much more useful than what I call "cartoon mode". Anyway, I can still just use Carplay with Google Maps and satellite mode works great. My 2025 Platinum is on order. No ETA yet.
Actually not true. There is a monthly subscription needed for Ford Digital Services (after 1 year free trial). However, prices have not been released yet.
@@conniebrumfield414noone doesn't want to mess up with stupid voice control or laggy screens. People's wants a physical buttons, that's the right way.
There's a ledge at the bottom of the screen that you can rest your fingers on and press the buttons with zero issues. Unless you are an ape, it's actually quite easy

Very good Google built-in system. is there a reason why the Maps sattelite view is not included (as compared to GMC, Chevy, and Volvo vehicles)?
So cool you have New Order Love Vigilantes playing
Just picked my 2025 up and I really needed this video! Can you do one on the same vehicle instrument/cluster display?
Same here. Learning time!
Just bought one. Can you put an image on the screen?
Will the voice button control the air control?
Yes
I don't need all of this I just want to drive!
Can you add a image on that background panel?
No
How do you delete channels on the radio?
I hate it when they put the ac controls on the screen. I love buttons 😭
Great video, One question I am hoping you can answer, does this system allow for a digital key (using your phone as a key to use the vehicle)?
A dealer I talked to said yes
Not that I know of. You can start the car with the app but it won't let you drive.

Do you have to subscribe on a monthly basis for Google services like maps?
No

No
Gadgets just raise the price and many are unnecessary distractions.
Going too fast and not explaining the meaning of the words that things are called. the cameraman isn't showing clear pictures close enough.
Completely unusable while driving. I was going to get a 25 explorer but not now,
Can you not use voice while driving?
