Now that I've used it a few months a couple of questions. It seems to take me off the freeway way early to get to where I'm going. Example. Instead of going a couple of more miles to another freeway that gets me closer to the address it gets me off on the right street but then I drive for miles to the address. Also if I put the address in and go a different way it will try to get me to go back to the way it wanted me to go. Justs quirks in the system? It's my first nav.

I think the theme of the G37 is "Safety."

I have also noticed that the nav routes take the safe options, being more conservative in exits and turns, opposed to putting me in a situation where I have to change lanes quickly.

I spend a lot of time setting up routes to places that I go a lot, and usually fight with the nav to go my own way.

When I follow the nav, I always get to where I want to go, just not necessarily the way I would pick on my own.

Another thing I have going on... I live in an area with "incomplete map data" and hear about it every time I drive in or out of my town. All of the roads and street names are labeled correctly, I don't know what I'm missing out on, but the nav lets me know about it.

No big deal, the maps are current and get me to where I want to go. Safely.
