Anyone keeps the Nav up each time, All of the time ?

In my day-to-day driving btw home, work, gym, shops...I don't bother to turn the nav on.

I keep it on, it helps to justify the extra $2,000 .... besides all the cool kids are doing it.

I usually don't - especially on quick drives.

Does the screen just sit there blank if you don't have it on?

Yup .. dark .. not even the faint glow of a backlight until you click on the "OK"

I keep it on, looks better

Does the thing take awhile to load or something? If ya paid 2k for it, I would keep it on all the time.

Never bothered to time it yet...about 20 seconds

Shibby

i usually keep it on but now for shorter rides i won't even bother... i'm afrain im gonna wear out the screen where the 'ok' button is

Jinen

I keep it on all the time...doesn't matter even if i am just sitting in the car or going for a quick drive or a long drive...i like to look at the screen once in a while...puts a on my face...

Quick Question ... is the Nav too bright at night? Is there a day/night function or a way to adjust it?

use the mouse thing. whatever its called. this way you dont touch the screen.

Cosmo Kid

its automatic.

iambgood

How does that work ... play off the lights?

~ B.Good

Cosmo Kid

that is one way. as soon as i turn on my lights the screen dims and changes colors.

i think (not sure) that there also may be a sensor because there have been rainy/cloudy days when i havent turned on my lights and the screen was dimmed.

i've only had the car for 1 1/2 months.

its not even that i would actually need the navigation...its just a nice luxury to have for unusual places and if u need a shortcut but the new RL Navigation would be nice to have for the TL with that updated traffic report...

I usually switch to the audio screen for local driving-- like to know what artists are playing.

There is a day/night setting tied to whether the headlights are on; that's the default. You can switch it to always do the daylight display, but I've found it too bright at night.

There is a voice command for adjusting brightness as well, but haven't used it yet.

I keep mine off unless I'm showing off the car. I have a buddy who has to constantly scan all 40-54 for the best rock songs the whole time; therefore the Audio screen gets a workout

I don't really pay attention to keep it on or off. Most of time my Navi is either off (the screen is off) or I have my Audio ON.


The Navi is just a fancy tool for me. It'll be turned on when I need.

acugirl

I keep it on only when either using it or when driving a longer distance. For short commutes, I keep it off, but most often, it is set to the audio. When I have my daughter in the car, she usually requests the navi screen as she likes to watch the little arrow moving

I usually have the audio screen up.

iambgood

Audio Screen???

tkx

Lol, too cute.

matelot

yes, audio configuration is done on the screen (bass, balance, pre-sets etc)
