New Car -- Nav system or not?

To the OP,
I can empathize with you. Sunday my s/o bought a new car, as his was totalled in an accident. He replaced his Lexus with a Ford, since he only received Blue Book value for the Lexus. We have no idea if we will receive any $$$ for injuries and damages. (Don’t get me started on drivers running red lights in the middle of the day.)

Back on track: We chose not to get the Nav system, but it does have Bluetooth and Sirius and voice. For his travel needs, Nav not necessary. When I moved out of state for a while, I survived only with a Nav system, and felt the same way for son’s car. Personally, I like the large screen of the built-in system.

I think you and hubby should think about your needs, and if the new car will be used for driving in unknown places.
