I still don't know how to use mine correctly.... BMW gps is not very user friendly....or I just don't have what it takes to understand the task...

Yes, it is a common occurance. It is always good to have a map.

Good morning Michael. I have to laugh, sometimes I wonder who programmed the stupid thing.

Siri loses her way more often than I do and tends to favor U-turns.

My GPS occasionally makes me take a left turn, and then another left turn, and then another, and then a fourth to take me back to the original road I was on.

No, we use our iPhone for directions, and Siri is very good.  We have a GPS  in the car, we use it when we are looking for gas stations of the freeway...most of time it is the iPhone...A

The only errors it makes is to take me on roads that have no acess to the public.  Otherwise, it's been really good.

Funny you asked, Michael Thornton .

I rely on Google Maps - and recently, I wanted to go to 'Equestrian Lane' and Google put me to 'Horsepath Dr!' - about 5 miles away in the same town!

I know Google is smart - did not know it's so much smart!

I don't use gps, but I get calls from agents saying they are lost when looking for one of my listings. More than once their gps has taken them to Waterford instead of Purcellville.

Sometimes, but mostly it is right on.  Sometimes it takes me around the block passing a street I could have taken to get to the house.

Michael Thornton There has only been one time when my GPS lead me astray. It had me turn into a One Way street in the opposite direction. Fortunately, I did see the Do No Enter sign before turning.

Yes, we've ridden highways where there were none, taken trips across lakes in our obviously amphibious vehicle and enjoyed the excitement of oncoming traffic on newly designated one-way boulevards. GPS's can be entertaining!
