Update on search Today my navigator discovered via trial and error methodology that you can find specific vicinity points of interest by going to POI on the screen then touch the search feature and it will display the keyboard. You can type in the specific, spelled correctly POI and it will...

The presentation is a bit technical, but you get the point. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLDgQg6bq7o

This winter season in Kentucky seems more like the winters in Fairbanks, AK! The few days we have decided to take the newest toy in the garage out for some quality road time it has been cold for the most part. We thought, this will be great with heated seats, but alas, that was not to be. My...

Yep, already been there and done that, and I'm not sorry, it was more than what I expected. Now, if we just had some decent weather a nice road trip is in order.

Update on navigation system We took the new toy to the dealership yesterday and met with two technicians for the electronics and navigation systems in the C7. The first one really didn't know much more than we had already figured out, but the 2nd one, who was the one that provided us with the...

Great video!

Ochen Khorosho tvarich! Good story, the C7 is apparently accomplishing what GM wants, expanding its market and what better way to do it than with the sexy C7! So far this car is nothing short of amazing, and what a value for the price. I never thought I would buy one, but I was wrong. Now...

This is a good profile for someone like me! We purchased our C7 to cruise backroads in a sports car with panache, performance, and killer appearance without a bone jarring ride. We did not want to be constantly shifting gears in traffic, therefore, we wanted an automatic with performance and...

Does it cover the side mirrors?

It (female voice) is the voice activated command system. It seems to have issues with voice recognition. At first I thought maybe it was just my Kentucky accent, but my wife is from Canada and it had trouble recognizing her vocal responses as well.

The 3D is really sort of weird and appears to simply add clutter from my experience. Yes, address to address routing is clunky but useable. However, the find function if you are looking for a place to eat, lodging, etc. is worthless from our initial experiences. We tried manual and voice...

Good news Competition generally creates a better quality product and lowers prices. This is good news for Corvette customers.

On board GPS Not really, we did get an USB memory stick full of information about the C7, but it really did not provide much of anything in the way of useful information concerning the navigation system. My wife has worked on it while we were traveling and it works OK if you can give it an...

Is there anyone that has mastered the use of the Navigation system in the C7? I have never had one that worked like a Garmin, Tom Tom, etc. But, this one is incredibly user unfriendly so far. I am reasonably electronically competent and do not have any issues with most systems, however, this...

Thanks Thank you for the useful information. The mini also has sensors, but I did not realize that it would damage them. I knew it was bad for aluminum, but basically forgot about the sensors. I will save it for use for the farm equipment!
