Another NAV Question
I had the NAV running yesterday while my wife and I were out running some Florida back roads up around Titusville. I kept getting a road name that was correct, but no indication of a road on the display - just the pip showing where we were. Am I doing something wrong with my map display settings or are the lines for the roads just missing? I thought a road should have been displayed since the name of the road we were on was displayed. This happened on more than one road.

I agree with the above posts. To me, this is a design flaw in the nav system. I fully understand not showing smaller roads when 'zoomed out' to reduce clutter on the screen. However, it seems the nav should show a smaller road when it is the road on which you are traveling.

I zoomed down to 1/4 mile but still no street. It would not zoom in further and I did not know if it had the capability to zoom further in. Is there a trick to it, or do you just push the button one more time? It didn't work for me.

All nav systems that I have been involved in development of switch over to displaying only major roads when in any zoom level above 1/8 mile. I see this same manner of display in the nav system in the C6 system. I believe you can zoom down to a level of 1/32 or 1/64 mile scale on the system in the C6.
