A few questions about Nav, trunk passthrough (fit a snowboard?), insurance, etc

Almost set on getting a TL-S, had a few questions.
1. How well does the nav/traffic service work? I haven't seem much talk on this - I am in the NY area.
2. Is the trunk passthrough big enough to fit a snowboard? Does anyone know the exact dimensions of it?
3. I've noticed that insurance is already more expensive than for its competitors (at least the AWD ones) - Geico doesn't seem to have a category online for the TL-S. Will it be even more expensive?
4. Does the mileage on the TL-S match up to EPA estimates, or are people getting much worse?
Thanks for all your help!

I can tackle the pass through question.

The pass through opening before removing the frame is approximately 6 1/2" X 10 1/4", not even big enough to get a 1X12 board through it, so probably not a snowboard either.

After removing the frame, it looks like the the opening is approximately 8X17".

This thread will give you a little more information on removing the frame.

And a hearty welcome to the forums.

you can get a snowboard through, but I wouldnt do it, there is no bag so it just goes right into the cabin unprotected.
