Just got back from Southern Cal ... thanks to NAV !

Just want to share some great experience of having the Navigation System in my 2002 TL-S.

Yup .... I spent 2 nights in Los Angeles and 2 nights in San Diego.
I would like to thank the Navigation System; it made the trip so much easy and fun to navigate around the big cities.

This was my first trip into LA downtown and the navigation system worked flawlessly in getting us to the hotel and around the city. This is the first time I told my wife that I will no longer get lost.

Going from LA to San Diego was also a piece of cake. BTW, I love the 24 hours car pool lanes that they have in Southern Cal. Over here, we only have 8 hours car pool lanes (5-9am & 3-7pm).

Overall, the it was a really fun trip. The car performed superbly. The ride was comfortable and it has lots of power to climb some steep hills on I-5 and to pass vehicles.

I LOVE MY TL-S !!!

Cheers !!!

Yea, the drive from LA to SD is pretty fun. But please don't tell me you liked the drive from the Bay to LA. GAWD I hate the 405!!

Oh yea, and it took me a while to get used to the 24/7 carpool lanes and their stupid double yellow lanes. For about two weeks after I moved here, I kept merging into the carpool lanes after 9 AM and while the double lines were still up

Driving on I-5 was h3lla bored. I would prefer Hwy 101 eventhough it takes longer to get there.

It took me a while to get used to the carpool lanes as well. Soon as I got to I-405, I quickly merged into the carpoll lane without waiting for the double yellow lines to break. But once I got in there... zoom... bye bye traffic.

Oh damn, just don't ever get on the 405 'tween 3PM and 7PM on the weekdays. Anyone in the area will tell you that the carpool lane actually moves SLOWER than the regular traffic lanes.
