Default Will Navigation work in Mexico? 05 update unknown

my family and i will be traveling to Mexico over Xmas 14hour trip (it is safe believe it or not). Well I have no idea if my navigation is updated to newset version, however I just want to know if anyone of you guys have traveled to Mexico? If so what did your navigation do once you left USA?

Thanks I will let you guys know, we will be traveling about 900 miles each way. I took the same trip in my old 96 Range Rover HSE a couple of years ago and the ride was really comfortable so I expect a good upgrade in comfort. Lets see how the GX does in gas I know the elevations will change dramatically, I hope to do a little off roading as well.

i am not 100% but i think the map dvd contains data for US and canda. so when you go to mexico, it might just be a greenland or blue ocean

2. Can my navigation system provide map coverage for Mexico?

Coverage for Mexico is not currently available.

I think this applies to all Generations and Update Map versions of the NAV systems for Toyota/Lexus out of the U.S. and Canada.

Cheers,
Kermee
