Direction of travel question.

Ok, I have the full TL package with Nav. But when I'm driving down the road I always like to see something that tells me what direction I'm going in. IE, North, South, East West ect. Is there something on the TL's Nav or somewhere else that would display this info. My 1998 Explorer had it with the current Temp.
Thanks

Top left corner of the screen. The red side of the arrow is North.

Also there is a North Up command. Which always keeps North on top and rotate the direction you are traveling. And the other way around. Temprature can be set to be seen on your MID all the time.

Yup I've got those two. I was hoping for more of a rotating led type compass. Guess not.

bothfly, you might know but in a setting (not north up) the compas on the Nav screen floats and changes as you change driving direction.

Unfortunately this also depends on the zoom level. It doesn't work if you're zoomed out too far.
