curious because of so much STUFF that has to talk to each other at start up.
maybe i need to not connect phone or usb music or pandora until truck is fully AWAKE??
thanks
EDIT
wiki has this,
The SYNC v1 computer, which Ford calls the Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM), is housed separately from the head unit, called the Audio Control Module (ACM), and interfaces with all vehicle audio sources as well as the high-speed and medium-speed vehicle CAN-buses.[27][28] The first generation of the Ford's SYNC computer was designed in cooperation with Continental AG[29] and is built around a 400 MHz Freescale i.MX31L processor with an ARM 11 CPU core, uses 256 MB of 133 MHz Mobile DDR SDRAM from Micron and 2 GB of Samsung NAND flash memory,[30][31] runs the Windows Embedded Automotive operating system,[32] and uses speech technology by Nuance Communications. Utilizing the USB port, SYNC's Microsoft Windows Auto-based operating system can be updated to work with new personal electronic devices. A Cambridge Silicon Radio (CSR) BlueCore4 chip provides Bluetooth connectivity with compatible phones and devices. SYNC's major circuit board chips cost roughly US$27.80, which allows Ford to profitably sell the system at a much lower price than competitive offerings.[30]
SYNC 3 hardware is a TI OMAP5432 CPU, using ARM Cortex-A15 cores.[33]
SYNC 4 hardware is an NXP i.MX 8 Series, using ARM Cortex-A53 cores.[34]
