Off Topic- My Vacation Rental
Took a trip up to New York for my Nephew's Acceptance Day into West Point. I knew I was going to be shuttling a lot of people around so I rented a 2013 Iridium Silver GL450.
WOW! The Twin-Turbo 4.7L V8 was fun to drive. Tons of torque and the sound of the twins spooling up as I was ascending hills was amazing. I will say I absolutely hate the MB Nav. I have the Becker system in my Coupe and I think it is so much better. Why would any company make a GPS that only shows route with the track facing North? Talk about confusing. The rest of the vehicle was nice, but for $75K I thought it would have more options. I will say it was the best rental I have ever had.

Do you have the Mercedes Multimedia NAV or the Becker system? I sat there for about 30 minutes going through all of the options and settings and couldn't find anything for Track direction.

I have the COMAND with DVD (code 512) system. I also have Sirius Traffic and Weather that works with the Navigation system
