Yup, they all have it.

Yep. I run apple carplay full time. My music and google maps for the full color.

Like others stated yes. There is a company that makes a plug in to make it more user friendly, since features are limited when hooked up to CarPlay (all for Saftey reasons but some are still annoying)

So how much phone data does this use on a monthly basis? I only have 6 GB per month. My original ?? was asked because I use GAIA off road maps. They added the ability to use their maps through apple play offline. I can download maps to my phone so I know this will not use data.

Dunno. Got unlimited

Now I gotta go play with settings. I haven’t been able to get the Sat view to work on my ‘21

What is this plug-in that you speak of??? Please share. My CarPlay is inconsistent. Waze doesn’t work well all the time and I wish I can use the microphone for Amazon Music.

Gaia and OnX both work perfectly with wireless CarPlay. I have no idea on data.. I have two work phones and a personal phone all with unlimited data/tethering

Wish I still had a work phone to use. Oh well, retirement is much better.

Yeah I agree 100%. I have a personal Verizon, a work Verizon and a work att/Firstnet.

I have a 14 GB plan, use CarPlay almost daily, and use up about 6-7 GB a month.

Granted I don’t know how much of that is attributed to CarPlay itself. But if I’m stationary I’m typically on Wi-Fi. So I’m guessing a good chunk of that is CarPlay—largely streaming music and/or podcasts through CarPlay while driving.

I don’t know how much Maps uses—I’ve probably used it less than a dozen times total. But if I were to guess it is very little, especially if you turn off the satellite images and just stick with the plain vector maps.

Hold on. The Bronco has built-in wireless apple carplay. Why would you need an accessory?
