#6 of 10 I just got a car with Sync, what should I do now? by mschmal Nov 12, 2007 (5:14 am)
Go to www.syncmyride.com and register. This way as Sync software updates come out, you will get notice.   You will be able to do these updates yourself with a flash drive   Mark.

Replying to: mschmal (Nov 12, 2007 5:12 am) I don't think the software is intended to work that way due to the tie-in with the make/model stuff on the Edmunds side. People find the iPod discussions ok, so maybe we just need to do a better job of tweaking the discussion names? Seems like an idea worth kicking around though - maybe some sort of disambiguation page to go along with the search tools.   Sync seems to have momentum and when the exclusive deal between Ford and Microsoft expires in a year it may leave GM/Onstar scratching its head.
#8 of 10 I drove a car with SYNC and a Cingular RAZR V3 - worked fine by captain_archer Nov 27, 2007 (8:33 am)
I was able to switch on the bluetooth and it downloaded the phone book and the bluetooth would always connect to my phone as I entered the car. The iPod USB interface worked pretty well too.   The main complaint I had is that it took a lot of commands to dial a number ("phone" then "dial" then "XXX-XXX-XXXX" then "dial" again) when it should have been as simple as being able to dial from anywhere in the menu (and not needing to switch modes first), saying "dial XXX-XXX-XXXX" then responding yes/no if it got it right.   It was a rental, I probably should have deleted that data before returning it...

This command is only required with navigation.   Without Navigation, you can just say "dial"   Mark
#10 of 10 Press Request by KarenS HOST Jan 31, 2008 (12:57 pm)
A reporter seeks to interview buyers of models equipped with Ford Sync. Please respond to jfallonedmunds.com no later than Friday, February 1 with your daytime contact information and a sentence or two about why you purchased Sync.
