Please Help Me Decide

Hi

 

I'm about to buy a 2011 Edge and am trying to decide if I should go for the Nav option. I have a Sprint Evo 4G phone (android 2.3). Do I need the nav or can I get what I need thru the Sync with my phone?

 

Thanks

For the $795 by it at a minimum for the resale. It's def worth it. If it were $2795 or even $1795 I'd say pass.

That's a good point, thanks.

 

But has anyone actually tried using the GPS on a Smartphone as opposed to the factory option? Does it work? Is it an ok alternative?

Sure - they work fine. Most aren't quite as accurate - may be off a few hundred feet but they do work. The difference is the size of the screen and audio through the car speakers, plus a few other sync/Nav only features.

Definately go for the factory nav, well worth it. At the cost from factory,not a bad deal.
