Well, ML with nav is a 6 disc DVD changer.

ML without it is still a CD changer.... (which is how I made a profit on getting the ML option)

Yeah this...I believe I had clarified that as well as others earlier in the thread so I didn't think to restate it again.

Default Well....

With my 2011 Lexus ISC, You can watch a movie as long as the Car is in park. LOL

I have the Navigation System and the "cheap" Lexus premium Audio system with 8 speakers,ASL, IN DASH Single feed CD Auto-Changer, Bkuetooth technology,USB Audio plug,XM Radio..... and the Navigation system. Nice to me.

My Grand babies watched Finding Nebo while there Nana was shopping.

I'm not as familiar with the '11 models, but maybe someone else can chime in. I didn't realize there was a way to watch movies on the nav screen without the ML system. USB plug in the console...that's the one thing I wish I had from the newer years.

CORRECTION..... I AM WRONG! IT WAS THE FORD SYNC SYSTEM THAT WOULD PLAY A DVD. I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT!
TO MY DEFENSE, MY WIFE drives the Lexus 95% of the time. Oh well.

Yeah that's how the ML is too...you actually have to have the parking brake on as well...well unless you happen to perhaps connect a couple wires and ground one and cap a couple more, but I'm probably just talking nonsense

One of my favorite movies ever
