I hit the home button on the navigation to test it out, and noticed that there wasn't any "text to speech" of the street names. Is there some kind of setting I need to change for the speech to be on?

Thanks for any help.

You need to select TTS voice in the Language options(which is Samatha TTS).

Settings-->Region-->Voice Language-->Select TTS file.

It is there in the manual.

I am not sure about if you would like TTS voice though( pretty bad), nevertheless give it a try.

I'll try it, thanks for the help.

I don't mean to thread jack but have you found a way (or anyone else) to change the TTS to a better one? The voice is really awful...

I agree. This is really awful. Even 3 years old cheap portable NAV has better TTS voice than this. I thought I saw some modified Samantha TTS files some where in F-Series forum, but I can not seem to find those any more.

I did downloaded some TTS voice editor softwares, but Pioneer TTS files are not compatible or supported by those editing software.

I am still open, if someone can post link to an editor, or post TTS files, I can experiment and post the results.
