It sure is nice.

I was in SF a few weeks ago when my driver was trying to find a dentist
office in order to pick up another passenger.

There are so many one way streets in downtown SF, that she couldn't figure
out the best places to make the turns.

So I created the route and guided her all the way there.  She was quite
impressed and even later told her dispatcher, who was unable to figure out
the best route for her to take.

Andy,

You are absolutely correct. This is why we have added so many vehicular
features in the last couple releases. If you go down the feature by feature
list of the Sendero GPS, you will find that there are about twice as many as
any other accessible product.

Kind of nice to be a blind back or front seat driver.
