Is the Navi in my 07 TL-S capable of plotting way points?

I haven't found any info on this or I'm just missing it but I can't figure out if the Navi in my car is capable of plotting way points.

Any help would be appreciated. If it cannot I'm a bit surprised since my 4 year old Garmin can.

If it is possible a short tutorial or a link would be much appreciated.

No one can answer this? I know the 4th gen cars can do waypoints but cannot find a way in my 3rd gen.

We can enter multiple destinations in a list and the Navi will choose a route to get from one to the other using "Today's Destinations" (the locations will stay in the system for more than a day, despite the "Today" tag).

However, I do not believe the Navi has the ability to plot intermediate destinations if we enter the ultimate destination.

That's clever. I wouldn't have thought of that. Sort of a work around.

Will Y. is correct. What you have to do is determine your intermediate stops, put them into "Today's Destinations," and then after the system sorts them into what it considers the best order you can rearrange them if you like (select the one you want to change and then move it up or down on the list, then select "Done" when you're satisfied). The Navi can't account for things like putting the grocery store last so your beer and frozen foods don't get too warm, for example, but you can always change the order it selects.
