Hi everyone - I love my 2019 Ranger - (we also have owned F150 and Expy's) ... love the Ranger.
From an electronics standpoint, I was happy BUT .....
I just rented a car on business for a week a 2022 Durango that had a sweet screen, wireless charging, and Carplay ....

Besides updating the screen ... I think I can buy a USB dongle to make my Carplay wireless .... anyone else tackle that or have a recommendation?

I will be searching the threads also ... thanks!

@DirkM has a 3D printed wireless charging plate that looks factory. Highly recommended - you can hide a wireless Carplay adapter underneath it.

I have two CarPlay wireless adapters and love them (one for my truck and one for the wife's SUV). Here is the thread - basically I believe most are the same and work - but if you have an issue update the firmware and that should do it - I ATOTO S3 in my truck once updated works great and my wife's is OTTO Air and also worked great in the Ranger. There is a thread also -
