I for one am not a fan of this decision.

FULL STORY


Ford and Google have announced an expansive six-year partnership that will see the tech company’s technology spread throughout Ford’s internal operations as well as to future Ford vehicles plus their infotainment systems. The agreement will bear fruit for car shoppers in just a few years, as Ford and Lincoln vehicles of all shapes and sizes are set to run Google’s Android operating system in 2023. It is unclear what this means for the Ford Sync system, but all signs indicate it will be phased out to make way for the new Google-based systems.

I think its good, ford sync is crap compared to android auto.

I have security and data sharing concerns, but I'm sure there will be people to hack the headunits to turn off any data sharing.
