    Once she gets used to the position of the buttons, she won't be hitting the "Park" botton to eject the CD.

    My greatest gripe are the control buttons on the steering wheel that I really don't want or need. I'm hitting those, when I'm trying to blow the horn.

    The nav DOES have lane assist! I get small lane arrows at the bottom of the screen indicating in which lane I should be and large road signs above, indicating, pretty much the same thing. I have the display audio.

    I agree with WolfB on Entune but about the nav system, I have mixed feelings. I was using a Garmin on my old car which worked very well and was better overall than that in the v3. On the other hand, the v3 nav is adequate for my needs and has worked pretty well overall. The main problem is the relatively low resolution of the screen in my opinion. A larger screen would have definitely helped. However I did not want to go all the way to a v5 with ATP just to get the bigger screen.

    Re the control buttons on the steering wheel, I'm a fan. I use them frequently and find them helpful in keeping my eyes on the road.
