Just got my 2013 Platinum today. Stickered at 53,305 and got the dealer down to 39,100. I'm very pleased with the deal we got. Sterling gray ecoboost. Ill post pics tomorrow once I get her all cleaned up! I'm so excited and ready to start modding already!

I had this problem with mine, Try using the unit and when you know that the voice should be telling you something IE: Exit right it 300 meters. Adjust your volume up. There is also a way in the menu I believe for voice prompt volume, I had this happen and you can tell when a voice prompt is playing because the music will cut off from the front speakers and only play in the back. Hopefully that works for you.

Good job on getting it below $40k!

Thanks man! It is a 4x4. We've bought our last four vehicles from them and the general manager over there really wanted to move the last of their 2013's. It took a lot of haggling with them and comparing them with several other dealerships, but I'm just happy it's over and I get to drive around in a shiny new truck!
