No, when I said that I mean if it thinks I am in north TN, I can reset it and it will show me as being back home in Oxford MS. But if I drive around for a while it will get confused again and lose my position.

whats the longest you have left it parked, with a good view of the sky with the nav turned on (key in posistion 1) so it can get new almanac data? I'm guessing when you reset it and drive about, it's trying to update your posistion based on gyro/road speed sensors rather than GPS.
