Re: GPS Nav in 2008

Beware.  I have a 2007 Cad and the GPS navigation sys. isn't worth a 
plug nickle - and it was a $2,000.00 option.

Borrowed my sons $300.00 unit and it's good compared to the GM unit. 
The big problem with the GM unit is that it can't find addresses and 
streets that have been around for well over 20 years.

My thinking is that the data based on a CD is not at all up to date. 
I'm working with my dealer on this problem.
