Can you think of anything worse for a GPS system?
I agree completely! The Nav in my 335i once routed me 67 miles out of the way on a 180 mile total distance trip. Luckily I knew how to get back and caught it before I started following the directions. The biggest thing I hate about it too, is even when it routes you the wrong way, it will continue to tell you to do a U-turn for the next 20 miles before it updates and send you the way you should have gone in the first place. Bmw gets a HUGE on their routing protocol. I haven't used the newer hard drive based Nav but hopefully they fixed all these issues.
