I’m in Canada and can’t figure this out. I get 3 years complimentary NAV connectivity with a new vehicle. The Ford NAV system appears to getting live traffic data as well as weather, in Canada and the US when I’m using it.

But I have no idea what network it is connected to to get this? How do I find out? I can’t see anything obvious in the Sync settings.

I just went to the SiriusXM link and entered my 2021 F 150 and was told;

Your 2021 Ford F150 doesn't support our infotainment options.

The Sync3 trucks (13gh gen) used Sirus Travel link. The 21+ use LTE for the connected Nav.

LTE? But over what networks? I’m getting traffic data in Canada and the US.

The connected Nav uses AT&T for connectivity. I guess if you don't have the connected nav then sirusxm is used for the data feed.
