I haven’t completely read through this whole thread but I have a 2018 with sync 3 . Can I download the files and it will go to 3.4 ? Also is it easier with a Mac or windows ?
I’m doing my 3.3 to 3.4 right now. Mine is a 2019, I updated to the latest 3.3 build first.

I’ll let you know

Mine shows Sync 3 v3.0 as well...which I'm confused about seeing people talk about 3.2 and 3.3

I am having the same issue. The Ford owners site stated that the current update for my rig is version 3.0, I have a 2018. So I updated to version 3.0 and will have to wait for Ford to release another update I guess.

That's odd

Here is mine

If your truck already has Sync 3.2 then it can be upgraded to 3.3 or 3.4.

My 2018 only had Sync 3.0. The instructions online requires you to reformat the internal hard drive to make it compatible with Sync 3.2 and up. This means that the jump from 3.0 to 3.2 is a big upgrade that has potential to brick your system (like if you pulled the USB drive out during the long process). Until Ford can mitigate the risk and make it idiot proof, I don’t think they will release an update.

If you have 3.2 or higher, your system is compatible for the upgrade to 3.4, as indicated in the instructions.
