Frank29,
The system blends well with the dash. I am 6 foot and my wife is 5 foot tall and we both prefer the line of site provided by NAVUS. I’m very pleased with the unit. As for the visual aspects, most people who are not familiar with 300C’s would assume it was originally built with the vehicle. There are no issues regarding driving view. Matter of fact, after a few days you don’t even notice it.
Keep in mind the local/regional cards only have 256 Mbytes of information while the national card has 2 Gbytes. I drove to Philly last night and was able to find any location and street with detailed mapping information down to street name as well the block numbers. For example, 300 block of west 3rd street. As you drive the information updates quickly. I also could find any restaurant I required with its grid location.
To route plan your destination, all you have to do is start from current location (No matter where) or place such as you home to an end destination point. The system takes less than 12 seconds to calculate and complete its procedure. Then your first voice prompts you as well as a visual display of driving direction and street information. If you want to find your way home from any location, all you have to do is “Find Way Home”
Points of interest are also provided by NAVUS. The “Find Command” provides you with a multitude of information. Let’s say no need to find gas. Simply use the “Find gas command” and you will be provided with stations nearest to your location. Use the same procedure for restaurants etc.
Detours are automatically re-routed with driving commands. The system always knows your location. “I love this system”.
