    But that’s not what i need help with.
    Within an hour of picking it up headed to Frisco (North Dallas) about 175 miles away. Know the trip very well but wanted to use my new navigation.
    I’m guessing somewhere in this less than stellar machine there must be a switch that says “no toll roads for you”.
    I put in the address and three routes popped up, none being the correct one with the North Dallas Toll Road.
    So what the hell. I picked one and drive my normal route figure it will automatically adjust like my Garmin. All along the way it gave cut offs from I-35 just after the exits (could not have made them if i wanted).
    Then when i drove onto the toll road it tried to make every exit a off point for me. Missing half by several 100 yards. It did not want to be on the toll!
    Any ideas please

    I'd rather eat glass than use the factory nav. Just plug in your phone and use AA or carplay

    Can’t say anything about the factory nav in the runner, but in my 17 taco it was a joke.

    Too many mods and too much money
    2012 LE, factory nav is tolerable at best. So I use a phone hot spot for WiFi to a tablet with GPS on an Arkon mount that doubles for my Yaesu ham radio. Then I use Google or Gaia. And I can put weather radar in there as well.

    Of course if you aren't in range of cell service for the hot spot, you can download an offline map of the area you plan to be navigating.

    HVAC and 4x4 controls are a little obstructed, so it's not perfect, but I have long fingers and it's served me pretty well.
    And yes, the interior needs some detail work...:anonymous:
