Better Shot of 8" NAV Screen

I found this yesterday and posted a link to whole article on the 2005-2009 forums but thought that this particular pic might get better response over here. It comes from the 2009 F-150 Platinum Edition BTW. I know I've seen a lot of speculation in regards to the large square cover on the waterfall dash of the 2010 and we all think it's going to be a bigger better NAV. This pic is the best shot of the newer NAV that I've come across. I sure hope it comes in the new Stang!

Some people drive their Mustang to work, others only at the track, so it's good to have it as an option, that's the whole point. But please don't bring the "smeared Mars bar" wood effect in the Mustang!!!

I have the factory nav and it definately needs to be higher up, a 3D view, not so limited POI's, not so limited (or not so specific) POI searching, on the fly detour routing, full control while driving...

Cooled seats would be nice too. I'm always sticking to them!

yeah those garmin units are pretty good. My friend had one and it was pretty accurate...

Can anyone here vouch for the sync NAV and how well it works?

I thought Sync was being made available as an upgrade for those of us with the NAV system in the Stang?

Exactly! I have a Garmin in my Trailblazer. While the factory nav is nice, the Garmin has a lot more features I use and it frustrates me when I can have them on the factory nav.
