    This is the support thread. Let's try to keep it on track. Other threads are for more general comparisions.

    Thanks,

    A good portion of US 24 south and west of Toledo just opened up on Friday last week. Will it be next years map update that has that or will something like that update throughout the year?

    No, you got busted for non-TND comparison. :biggrin_2554: If not on track this will become a general catch all thread. There is another thread for that. By keeping a support thread it makes it easier for others to post their issues/questions in one thread.

    thanks,
    Mark

    Tricky question. The map companies have to verify that these roads are now open and place them in their databases. It could take up to a year depending on how fast the local DOT signs off on the construction and the paperwork flow goes.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Well, a couple mornings ago my TND 710 routed me down a dead-end RESIDENTIAL street trying to get to an address in an INDUSTRIAL PARK!! So, I had to BACK down the street in the dark to get turned around so that I could then use GOOGLE MAPS to get to the place!

    Yeah, I'm sure glad I spent the $399 on this unit, and I'm surely going to spend another $89 for a map update, NOT!!
