I don't know anything about them, so what are some things I should be looking for?

Thompson Guide and learn to read it.

I don't see the point of nav units when they make maps and mapquest for things like that.

Pioneer Avic D1 :thumbup:



It wont play DVD movies tho, it doens't have the decoder for them. It will only play the DVD's for the maps. If you want one that will also play DVD movies than try the Pioneer Avic N2

I can read maps just fine. Drove from Oklahoma City to Galveston, TX once using MapQuest. It's a lot easier being able to drive without having to glance down at your map, which could create a dangerous situation. It's also annoying having to go to Kinko's to print of the maps because I don't have a working printer. Besides, those things don't make it easy on you to get back on course if you accidentally get lost or miss a turn. Finally, it's my money.
