I remember my first week trying to use a GPS. I had never used one before, and was resistant because (at the time) I didn't have hearing aids and trying to listen to voices on my cell phone speaker while I'm trying to drive is a HUGE distraction to me.

I got lost in the parking lot over the 441 golf cart bridge one night, looking for a particular restaurant that was outside of the Spanish Spring town square. And the thing said "head north on [insert road here]." I just slumped over and started crying. If I knew which way was north, I wouldn't have been lost.

Eventually I was able to get back on track but boy was that a harrowing experience.

I just had ours updated at the Honda dealer, no charge.
