Only 1 USB port in front seat area??

[NevadaGeo]

Seriously? There is only 1 USB ports in the entire front seat area? The dashboard base has USB and USBC, USB behind console but nothing in console compartment. 2023 Limited with the SSP. Am I missing something? As an electric tech machine, I expected more in the critical front seat area. There are 2 USB ports in the 3rd row but only 1 up front. I must be missing something. Am I??

should be one inside the armrest console. There may be a cap on it. my 19 has it

Nope. Triple checked. There is only a 12 volt plug-in (cigarette lighter type). Owners Manual says there is one there, but it must have missed me.

I plugged a dual USB C 18A each plug into that cigar outlet.

Yeah, thanks. That is just what I am doing as well. I thought I was missing something but so be it. I can turn that outlet into 2 USBs. I figured the Limited SPP would have more than one USB but i was wrong.

Can you not use a USB-C to USB-3.0 adapter for your 2nd USB port? That gets you two USB-3.0 outlets plus there's the wireless charging pad. How many devices do you need to charge in the front row?

Sorry yea u are right its a 12v in that compartment. I only have the 2 usb ports where the wireless phone charger is. Maybe the usb ports became too expensive to have more up front and felt the teenagers should have more in the back

 

[NevadaGeo]

I think you are right. Its something Ford should think about in the future.

On my 2019, the front 2 and the one in the armrest are all < 5 watt USB A ports. And plugging a 2nd Android Auto phone in to the front car ports confuses things so my passenger can charge their phone with the armrest cigar plug and my phone is running the maps and tunes. I will use the 2nd port on my cigar adapter to charge my tablet when it's in the center compartment

In the Mrs car, she used a plug-in adapter. In my 3rd gen Expedition I mounted one of these.
