I have a USB stick plugged into the slot just below the info screen on the center stack. It plays back my music just fine. The problem I can't sort out is why the sound system reverts to "radio" about 30 percent of the time when starting the truck. It can happen after just a few minutes of the engine being turned off or as long as over night. Totally random. I usually have the audio system playing from the USB when the engine is shut down and I exit the truck. When I go to use the truck again the audio system seems to "forget" that I had the USB selected as the source when I last used it. I've looked through the owners manual and haven't found anything that would allow me to set the USB as a default. Anyone else out there have this happen? Is there a way to get around this small problem? The audio system is the base one without Sync3. There are close to 1700 MP3 music files on the stick. Nothing else. When I start the engine I see a message next to the audio "source" that the system is "indexing" the stick. Are there too many songs on it? Does something time out? Ideas anyone?
