I just did a 3500 mile trip. Turned off the predictive curve assist and the automatic speed limit adaptation. Thought they disrupted the flow of traffic. The predictive curve assist is WAY too conservative. Only issue I had was the valet scuffing the bumper ��

Holy crap, glad you weren't on a Harley.
Meh - that was a baby!

One left a gut streak about 8" long, 2" wide on my front pax fender. And a huge butterfly like thing hit dead center of windshield right in front of my face! Made a stop at a gas station just to get that cleaned off - didn't need gas.

Fortunately my front end is covered in clear bra film.

The only thing that drove me nuts was trip disruption warning. On my way through upper MI it told me every 10 minutes road closed 200 miles ahead, and kept wanting me to select alt routes. I was not too trusting since several prior warnings turned out to be false. No way to turn it off, but I did learn you can zoom in on details, and I could see a clear detour was available where the road was closed. I guess selecting an alternate route is the only way to shut it up. The road was in fact closed when I arrived, but plenty of detour signs to get you back on track.

In the first pic you posted, how did you change what's in the gauge on the right? I know how to change the "additional info" on the left gauge, but I can't seem to find a way to change the right one. TIA

That shows when Nav is active.

Ah, duh...haven't used nav that much (usually just use my phones) but will probably do so more now that I have Connect Prime again, thanks.

Just noticed your gas mileage, is it a 2.0?
