All of the U.S., most of Canada and Mexico is on one DVD. Pioneer gives you several 'views' to pick from, the best is the heads up view which looks like your looking at the street with a mini-map.
You can get a Pioneer touch screen if you want, the regular screen works fine too. You can talk to it (Go home) and it will talk to you (make a right turn to pick up the highway, US 9 North). It saves hundreds (or thousands, not sure) addresses you put in and you can back up your settings on a memory card, although the unit was removed from my car for 4 months and kept the settings.
I'll be happy to answer any other ?'s...just let me know.

All of the U.S., most of Canada and Mexico is on one DVD. Pioneer gives you several 'views' to pick from, the best is the heads up view which looks like your looking at the street with a mini-map.
You can get a Pioneer touch screen if you want, the regular screen works fine too. You can talk to it (Go home) and it will talk to you (make a right turn to pick up the highway, US 9 North). It saves hundreds (or thousands, not sure) addresses you put in and you can back up your settings on a memory card, although the unit was removed from my car for 4 months and kept the settings.
I'll be happy to answer any other ?'s...just let me know.

Wow, talk about an old post.
My "surround" is a Scosche....http://www.scosche.com/
The setup is Pioneer:
AVX-P7300DVD - 7" Wide screen LCD with DVD and CD player
AVIC-90DVD - DVD Navigation Unit and DVD player
AVM-P8000R - Master Unit 'Brain'
CDX-P676 - 6 Disc CD Changer {Premier}
GEX-P900XM - XM Radio
Verizon Wireless v60p Phone {Replaced the t720c in the pic}
I didn't want the touch screen...it's not my style. I know Pioneer has a new system coming out with custom Digital Guages built in...that I might upgrade to.
The price...umm...can't discuss that.
For more pics and pics of my other cars go to: www.erikcohen.com
Under cars...present for the coupe...past for the Maxima...those are the 2 cars that had major mods. I really need to update the coupe mod page...maybe tomorrow.
