Is the TL Navi system something that has a monthly fee? Or is it like Street Pilot ot Tom Tom, just linking to GPS? Thanks > Is the TL Navi system something that has a monthly fee?

The Navigation system uses free information from the GPS satellelites to determine where you are and stored information on a DVD-ROM in the trunk to turn that information into a map. You can buy map updates as often as once per year if you want to at a cost of around $185. So far I'm updating ours every three years. The latest Garmin portable units are now getting pretty good for under $500, so you might want to think hard about the Garmin vs. a dedicated unit.

But it won't be integrated with the radio, and Blue Tooth phone like the TL system...

There is a monthly fee for the real-time traffic updating for the navigation. I think it's about US $10 per month. - Russ in Santa Barbara, 2004 TL, 1997 NSX > Is the TL Navi system something that has a monthly fee?

Real time traffic updating is optional on the TL and standard on the TL-S. - Russ >> There is a monthly fee for the real-time traffic updating for the >> navigation.

I think it's about US $10 per month. Real-time traffic is delivered by XM satelite radio. If you pay for the XM radio service already, then the traffic data is $4/month extra. $10/month is if you do not get the XM radio. |
