    hey Mark, a few weeks ago i had mentioned that my 720 doesn't seem to pick up that most FM roads, Farm to Market roads, here in Texas are weight restricted. you had asked for an example...well sorry it took so long but here is one... FM 167 from the junction of US 377 in Granbury Texas, 76049 is the zip. not a biggie just wanted to finally follow up.

    if i can ask ya something, where is the sensor for the unit to switch from day to night? mine seems a bit off, dirty maybe? stays on day till i manually switch it and like wise stays on night till i switch it back to day.

    thanks for your help.

    Teq.

    I believe that it goes based off of sunset and sunrise which are displayed when you click your current speed. Mine always seem to match the times displayed there.

    Mark,
    Does the latest update include the fix for no change when clicking detour? I just updated but haven't tested yet.

    Thanks, Josh

    Yes, the screen is not user repairable.

    Thanks,

    It goes by the GPS time for the Lat/Long you are in.

    Preferences/General/Day-Night mode - make sure it is in Automatic.

    Thanks,

    The truck speeds in IL still need to be updated. They still read 55 when it is 60.

    But overall I'm very impressed with the new map update.
    And my 520 has not locked up a single time since I updated.
    It used to lock up if I did too many searches for different things. Not so since the update, and I've really tried to push the limits.
