does this unit show forest service roads? or just paved/named city streets?

This unit was for my husband. He has used it for one thousand mile trip. He reports that the unit does show power line roads. He doesn't recall seeing forest service roads but he wasn't looking for them. Paved/named city streets do show on the screen printout but are not voiced. The first day of use the unit locked in a loop and stopped working. He let the battery run down totally and re-booted. After that it worked fine. Hope this helps. Constance Freed

I don't recall, as I already have it installed, and yes it will show location/altitude/etc. in the metadata. It's a free download from here:http://nikonimglib.com/nvnx/

I doubt it, it had little to no details. Just green area and topo lines. So you cant find your way around because there were no trails shown but I hear that there are some trails in the major parks. I think that they have allot of work to do on that product before it can be widely useable, hope that helps, R.

No this unit does no show the grades of Mountain passes - i have not see a GPS that does that - what this does show is your altitude

I have found this unit to have a lot of back roads and even a lot of forest service roads though the forest. I even found some old logging roads out in Colorado that were on the unit.

The maps are Navteq. Same company that does Jeep and Dodge factory navigation. With the HD radio this unit has, I get road conditions and traffic updates. And you can get updates thru JVC website for the unit.

I don't bike, but it has a icon for routes and tracks. It does elevations, if that's what you mean?

Yes it does and is very easy to read. It will also show major roads and names as you expand the map

No it does not. But you can purchase a map upgrade that you can then use for the life of the unit. It does however come with lifetime traffic updates.

It shows the exact spot on the map. You can zoom down to street view too. Same with harsh breaking, etc.

yes! The names appear in an alphabetical order. That is where names are attached to each entry. But if one adds only numbers of streets, which in most cases come before the names of the streets, these street names are equally alphabetically arranged.

No, it doesn't. It does provide traffic information about traffic jams and such, but again, only in certain areas. Not in mine for instance (Charleston SC)

Thankyou. I am finally getting bold enough to drive around outside Bogota. I will check out that website. Someday they will post route nunbers at intersections but not holding breath. Can't find a rental that has one. Avis doesn't.

I just ordered this unit. In the Settings, There should be a box marked avoid Toll roads. I've seen it before on an older one.

No, used it North central PA. Smokey Mts, Cherokee Nat. forest no grade indication. As a flatlander with F350 & slide in camper I tap to see elevations out of curiosity. My parameters 12k lbs 12'6" have had "use discretion" when I've went off route a few times, but not the reason.

Good to hear that those instructions worked out -- I should be able to figure out what is going on w/ the cut-off speech of the street names.Can you tell me if your TomTom is cutting off only some of the street names, or is this happening with all street names?
