It's DVD based, to update one would need to purchase a new DVD. I have no idea what the GM DVD costs, but when I upgraded the DVD nav in my S60R it ran me 200.00 for the new DVD.

You of course are at the mercy of the company imputing the data as it relates to changes and getting your new intersections in.

My experience.... takes them 18 months or so for new updates, perhaps GM is a little better.

Long story..... Was in Houston, TX. Company needed me to relocate to MN for one year, stated that they would hire a replacement for me to train-in and then send me back..... THAT WAS 6 YEARS AGO. My wife is from New Orleans, and let me tell you this is the "difficult" time frame to be near her, it will get a little better come April/May

I miss the Gulf Coast, I kept my off-shore fishing rig for 4 years, day dreaming when I would return, but I sold it 2 years ago.... no need to have it sitting on a triple-axle trailer in my fathers back-yard. I do know a little about boating .

Volvo's, had a dip-chit T-Bone me in a company Dodge Neon (Yeah, different company obviously ) I was standing still, he was doing 'bout 70...... After getting cut out of the car, hospital, etc, I searched for a "safe" car and fell in love with the Volvo Line, and it's nice to have a 300 HP performance sedan, most people are quite surprised when they want to "kill" a Volvo in a race and find themselves playing catch-up......

Main reason for looking at the Hummer line when told to go pick out a Company Car.... SAFETY. Don't care to EVER go through that again.
