Default Navigation Question

On my old 2001 LS, when you would get to your destination when using navigation assistance, the destination address would display on the top of the screen when the voice would say "You have arrived at your destination". This was extremely useful because it always says you've arrived about a 1/2 block before you get there so you could look at the screen and remember the address and then look at the buildings to find the correct one.

On my new GS430 it does NOT display the destination address when you arrive. Does anyone know a way to make it display the destination address on arrival? I can't find it in the option menus. This is a very helpful feature.

I'm pretty sure if that feature is included, it should be available in the Option menus...although which option menu I'm not sure...

Default Gen 4 Nav is different and 10X faster

The Previous Destination button in the Destination field will have the requested destination listed at the top. The way it calculates an address is only an approximation. If you have ten addresses on a given block then it divides the block by 10 and makes a guess. The Route key is important because sometimes the destination doesn't clear and it will try to backtrack to your last destination. Hit the Route key on the map screen and then delete and then Yes. If you want to know your current address then hit the Map/Voice button on the dash and your location will display at the top of the Map. Any more Nav questions?

I think what he's saying is he wants to see the destination target address at the top of the screen once the guidance has completed so he can look around with the street address at hand.

I don't think it shows this either. Hitting Map will show you the current, not the target. I'll look through my system.
