As per ~King Lake~’s rec I tried Apple Maps on a longer trip today. It lasted until it confused me by a fork and didn’t provide instructions which in turn cost me 7 minutes. Went right back to Waze. Waze is not perfect but at least it’s clear in most cases ime.

I find google maps is far better than Waze at turn by turn directions. Also the navigation voiceover is not nearly as lengthy (read: less annoying) and has better timing as well.

Might be, I just tried Apple. Guess I’ll try google next time.

Apple with a fork? Why would you think that's a good idea?

When I got my last car, a Honda Odyssey, it was only offered in the Elite trim (which wasn't available for delivery).

Which cars have it?
Pretty standard now
