I'm just saying while I agree that google maps is great, it may not be a 100% replacement for in car NAV - that said I think it should be dirt cheap at this point and basically an included option like AC and seatbelts.

And depending on where your favorite spaghetti type roads are i.e. some parts of Arkansas, Hill country in South Texas, or in many parts of East Texas, you will not have connectivity as well. While I do agree that Google Navigation normally updates to new road changes much more quickly, and that trying to find something is also much easier, there are just times when I need to have factory nav and its built in database.
It is also just a $500 option now as compared to 5 years ago when it was commonly a $1000+ option. This is actually one of my bigger hang ups with the 1LE as it does not appear to be an option at this point...
