Default New Navigation Upgrade 11.1, not impressed

Just got back from a trip to Wake Forest with the new 11.1 DVD upgrade. Not impressed. Still roads missing that have been there for 3+ years, still "recalculates" sporatically and sends me way out of the way.

11.1 might have just been a waste of money.

how much did it cost you to get the 11.1 upgrade? I'm still running on the version that the 05 has. Been desperately trying to find the best pricing amongst dealerships ...

Why don't you just get an aftermarket head unit with navi? You will have way more options.

Got it off eBay. $149 free shipping. That was the best price I found, except for hi-jacked copies.

Well, I'd prefer to keep my stock navi on my 05 gs430. I have a system hooked up to and not trying to go all out. I saw a few of the ebay ones but wasn't sure how legit they were. Saw a post last night on here somewhere that someone picked up and said they liked it. There's actually 2 versions of the disc: an East and a West one.
