my navigation kinda sucks
I would like to see if i can buy the upgrade but b4 i do i wanted to know.....
1-my current screen shows turn by turn with a snap shot pic telling me to make a turn
in the next 1/4 mile etc etc... instead of just showing me the "follow me map"....
so it confuses me even more cuz all of a sudden it pop a still photo of the next move....
if i get it upgraded does the whole navigation illustration change? or do they stay the same but just
with new road updates..?
I hope i explained it nicely or those with 2003-05 would know what i mean ...
tank you in advance !!!
 
Unfortunatley only the roads get updated but the illustrations stay the same. Its annoying but you can press the MAP button or disable this feature in the Navigation settings so that it doesn't pop up those "Upcoming turn" Windows.

The 2006+ FX models had a nicer GPS design but you won't be able to upgrade to that since it was a redesign and likely different hardware internally.
 
ok ill try the disabling of the upcoming turns method thank you so much for the help
I got lost couple of time because of this feature.... it kept popping up b4 so made couple turns
b4 i was supposed to^^
 
Yes- you can def. disable that gps method so it is just the arrow and map gliding in the correct direction. It is much better than the pops ups, they seem to not be quick enough and cause you to not keep your eyes on the road as you should.
