I have it and I love it. I had more problems with my Pioneer Navi. The problem that I see is that it's not always accurate with exact locations. It's usually really close. But, I saw the same problem with the Pioneer and the navi in my friend's BMW so the problem is pretty common.

Kenwood typically breaks alot more than others. Pioneer originally engineered most of the Nav systems for Kenwood tho. I would stick with Pioneer or Eclipse. Pioneer isnt the leader in aftermarket Navi for nothing.

Heres one better if it helps. My customers prefer Pioneer to Kenwood at least 15 to 1.
