I am wanting to know if all Maverick's come with a navigate system? If so is there something special you need to do to either find it or activate it?

Not all of them have one built in. But connecting your phone to the truck, using either Android Auto or apple car play puts the navigation in your phone onto the truck's screen.

Your dealer should've shown you how to use it and even set it up for you. Go back and ask them to help you with it.

There is a setting to turn navigation on just scroll through the menus I don’t remember the exact location but once I selected it my full navigation was available or as others have stated you can use carplay if you prefer I just figured since I purchased this option I’d use it - it works great

Except you have a Lariat and the OP has an XL.

So I don't know about the 2025s, but the 2022-2024 years only the Lariat level trim has navigation. The XL and XLT require you to use carplay or android auto for nav.

I don't know how great the built-in navigation is on the Maverick. I tried to use to navigate to a city 60 miles away, and was told you can't get there from here!

It is a bit sensitive as far as how you input the data. I entered almost all of the address of a location 300+ miles away, and it wasn't until I added the zip code that it found it.

It found he address when I was entering it. It actually auto-completed the address. It just didn't know how the get there. I tried again 40 miles down the highway, and it worked OK. Luckily I knew how to get to the city, even if I didn't know where the destination was in the city.

All you need is apple carplay or Android auto. Wireless dongle of wireless isn't supported from factory and done !

Zero use of any built-in apps .

It depends what trim you have. If I recall, the welfare editions (XL/XLT) don't come with a built-in navigation system. Only the Lariat models come with it. I could be wrong, but that's what I've been told.

We have a Lariat with navigation. Bought a Bronco Sport Outer Banks off the lot in January and didn’t realize till we drove it home it had no navigation. Car Pkay works fine and lets you know if accidents, police or stalled vehicles are ahead so it can give you real time information.

Factory navigation was not an available option on the XL so your Maverick definitely does not have it. As others have mentioned you can use Apple Carplay or Android Auto which will essentially mirror your preferred maps app that you use on your phone.
