The problem with the onboard NAV system is that it's too expensive to start with and the updates are costly and infrequent. If they'd cut the price in half and provide at least quarterly updates to the maps plus traffic alerts at no extra cost, now THAT would be something I'd buy.
Let me know when your Garmin has Heads Up Display, and you don't have to worry about someone smashing your window when you leave the car.
