Anyone that may want a Nav Disc v3.0, PN 25850927, they're available at Amazon.com for 69.00 shipped. Just thought I'd share that info. My 08 has 2.0 and wont be due for update till 9/09.

Is it possible to use a Garmin cd or something other than the GM cd for the nav? It seems that it always takes the worst way to go, in comparison to my garmin portable gps. Obviously, I do not want to have to carry the portable when I have the nav built in already...but the directions stink!

I noticed that too. I will ignore the Nav till it redirects itself to the way I want to go, then I listen to it. It seems it gives generic directions regardless if you choose fastest or shortest. Another thing is I wish it was real time Nav. My lady friend has a new Bimmer and it redirects her whenever traffic is an issue. GM dropped the ball in this area.

In my experience the nav gives good directions about 90% of the time. It's much better compared to the nav in our VW, it gives good directions only about 60% of the time.

Funny how you mentioned the price on these. I just had to go back up to the dealership the day after picking up the truck because they hadn't tossed the nav cd in there when we took delivery. They told me they leave them locked in a safe inside since they cost dealers 400 each and some go missing. I did notice the one I was given was the 3.0 version. Dealers probably really are that dumb to pay 400 for these. I should buy some of amazon and see if they want to buy them off me for a substantial savings... (sarcasm)

Are you aware that GM decided to drop the free two years of DVD upgrades for 2008?
