Question 2007 Ford Ranger MP3 cd question

So I have a 2007 Ford Ranger(obviously). So I have made several MP3 cd's however when I put the cd in the music plays however it does not display the text. The MP3 cd's display texts on other Ford vehicles. I was wondering if anyone else had the same problems. I make my mp3 cd's on i tunes. But i have made a few on other problems and those dont work either

You need to setup your radio to show either the name of the song, group or number of order.

The ranger's radio lacks when it comes to its 1990 style limited display, can't even show a full artist name.

Very simple.

I keep mine in because it does the job, and it does it well. Until i get tired of it, then i'll upgrade for a multimedia full screen double din.

Well it does it for mp3s (haven't tried my store bought cds yet), but the lenght(sp?) of the lcd display doesn't allow for complete names, unless you listen to one word artists such as rush, madonna, sting, kiss, etc.
