But did something change with the clock 06-07 to next update? This might have been auto an daylight savings function or something.
Yes - the start and end dates for Daylight Saving Time changed to reflect the extended DST period.
There ARE SOME additional changes beyond those mentioned above.... most (if not all) are minor refinements. Examples are the addition of street names (used to just say "turn left", now says "turn left on Maple street"). Another I believe has to do with memory... maybe max entries or something like that & I believe breadcrumb mapping changed somehow (don't really remember that one).
I had forgot about the spoken street names, which still seem to be inconsistent. Sometimes, I'll notice the voice say something like: "Turn left on
the next road" (without speaking the name of the road). Other times it will speak a prerecorded road name. Sometimes, it will speak the road name in a synthesized voice. I do remember something about breadcrumbs - perhaps the ability to turn them on/off or erase them? I've always had them, but my first Ridgeline was an '07.
Even with the latest updates, it really is a slow, clunky, low-res, minimalist, and inconsistent system. Then again, the basic hardware dates back almost 15 years. It was once a cutting-edge system that was one of the easiest to use. I find myself using my iPhone for navigation most of the time now. It's
much faster and more accurate to tell Siri, "How do I get to the nearest Genghis Grill?"
