I agree, I have done some searching but nothing thus far. Being that getting to the menu was hard enough to figure out, a manual will probably be even harder to come up with. If I come across anything I will be sure to post it.

Yes it is. In order to get the factory nav in the 07-08 150's you had to also get the audiophile sound system which came with a powered sub under the rear seat that had an amp attached directly to the sub box.

False. The two have nothing to do with one another. Factory NAV and the audiophile system are separate options and can each be had without the other.

I searched through but have not found anything to adjust output levels thus far.

Anyone discover any other features yet? I know disabling safety feature has come in quite handy, I use it more now than I ever did.

So did I, but I added the factory sub since the wiring was already there. So now, it's audiophile.

Sweet thread
Has anyone found a way around that darn agree button? Also can change mine from Lincolin to Ford but is there any way to make it stay Ford?

My contract terms screen only appears if I had the unit on the NAV screen or display turned off when I last shut down the truck. It doesn't do the contract screen if you had the stereo on or the unit powered down. I don't think there is any way to turn that off.

They're in there. Fun to play with for about 5 minutes, after that they're useless, unless you like looking at a g-meter or an analog-face clock, lol. Several of them don't work because they aren't connected to the required sensors. (later acel and some others)

Btw, Anyone know what that hard phone button does on the nav unit? I push it and it just beeps. That's it.

It doesn't do anything unless you purchase the Ford mobile-ease system for handsfree phone use.
