Upgrade Nav vs using Google Maps on phone?
Good Morning,
I'm pretty new here so first let me say "Hi" to everyone! We just acquired a 2005 RL and my wife drives it most of the time and I drive it on the weekend. I did set up the Bluetooth to use the phone which is tricky but haven't really used the Nav system at all because it seems to be easier to use my phone. That said I did go in and set up our home address but that is all I've really tried. My question is with my phone having some of the newest technology and it just so easy to just ask it for directions and it pops right up, is my Nav system really going to be worth upgrading? Again I haven't really spent much time with it and am not fully acquainted with it's full capacity but it's seems antiquated compared to my phone but I want to make sure get others feedback before I write it off.
Thanks!
