NAV database not worth the money - save your $3000

You would think that the NAV database would have common post offices in it - like the main post office in Norfolk, VA (a small town of 250000 people when the navy is out on deployment). We are talking the "main post office" - that is what it says on the building, but nope. Wouldnt come up. Even when I was in the parking lot and seqarched category post office, sort by distance it wanted me to drive 2 miles.

In your town, does the NAV list the 'official' post office name like "Customhouse Station", etc?

And have I mentioned how inefficient the knob wheel is? Almost as slow as entering letter by letter in the voice command.

hate the nav, hate the nav, hate the nav

Sell it and buy another car then.

I, for one, love the nav in my RDX, and still find it to be one of the best I've used.

+1...couldn't agree more. I love the Acura GPS. I've used others and still think this is one of the better ones. Don't people play with the GPS when they test a car? I spent a good 20-30 minutes checking it out during my test drive. I have found that you do have to search correctly to get what you want but once you figure it out it works like a charm. I've tested various things out to make sure I can do the best search possible.

BTW, I love the knob. I'm so happy I don't have to worry about cleaning my screen all the time because of fingerprints.
