Hi Brian Rowe,

Replying to text through SYNC is a phone dependent feature and not all phones allow it. What phone are you using, and which system do you have: owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-technology/all/setup/how-to-identify-your-sync-version.html

I hope Voice Texting while driving is available in the 2017 F-150 I have on order. I'm able to do it in my 2015 Mustang, it doesn't have SYNC-3?

Hi HuskerHarley,

The feature depends on the phone you're using. What phone do you have?

The way I text while driving is hold down the steering wheel button and activate SIRI then tell SIRI to send text to whoever. The sync3 will only send a canned message I believe. May be another way but I know that works.

That's what I do in my 15 LE...Thought it had to do with the system in my car...Guess it's SIRI doing the work...Learn something every day at this site-->

Texstechfan is correct, HuskerHarley. iPhones allow you to use Siri Eyes Free to send a text. This feature is also available on sync3.

I only support SYNC concerns. Please reach out to my colleagues for an update on your order: https://www.f150forum.com/members/fordservice-47652/

Congrats in advance!

Ya, congrats! Hope you like the truck as much as I do mine. Most well built sweet running Ford vehicle I have ever owned.

The last time I purchased a new ford truck was 1993, F-150 Lightning, It was OK. My last two Mustangs (12 BOSS & 15 LE) haven't given me any major headaches. Hopefully, the 17 F-150 will make me smile-->
