I agree. They sound like they are more trouble than they are worth!

Yea, I couldn't care less about watching a DVD in front (although I do it sometimes with music dvd's in the vette). What I really want is TOTAL access to my NAV system while moving. Someone else is trying it out on an '09 on here (different thread). I'm hoping it gets better reviews.

Having total access to the NAV is the only reason I want it too. Too bad none of these companies make a kit that only fixes that issue.
It's fricken stupid that they lock it out while moving. There are millions more of those portable GPS's in cars than factory nav units, and you have total access to them at all times.

I'm curious how the new Gen 6 version works with vers 5.0 of the NAV.
All manufacturers lock out their GPS updating while moving, or at least a lot of them. You can thank the people that sued GM because they were not paying attention and blame the GPS for letting them lose their attention.

How long has the unit been in the truck? Now that I have the 5.0 Nav, I'm interested in the Lockpick.. if its still full function and was it a home install or shop? Its going in an 07 Tahoe with factory everything

I have an 07 with Gen 5 and 5.0 and I have the same problem as the thread starter.
I've had the unit in the truck now for almost 2 months and no issues whatsoever!! It is plug and play .... do it yourself ... takes all of 15-25 minutes

Just remember there is a TSB out there warning the dealers of the lockpick if you take your vehicle in for various problems such as starting, idiot light, etc. The only reason I'm hesitant in getting the lock pick is that GM can make it useless during a map update.
