Hi,
I am thinking of getting a MIO 168 PDA with tomtom navigator 5.
What I would like to know is can the average speed settings be changed so they are more relevant for truck driving?
Also if I buy it with just UK maps, can European maps be added at a later date if and when required or do I have to get everything I want to start with when I install it all?
Thanks in advance.

No they can't be altered. It's a major problem for anything other than a very small car. Even when set to 'Fastest' the routing will often use unclassified, narrow, and sometimes unmade, roads.

My advice on Navigator 5 would be - check out the Navigon section of this forum.

Some people are not too happy with it.

Hope this helps.

Chris, read the post, only joking, but he is refering to TomTom 5, not Navigon 5
