Previously I had a Tom Tom and you could enter a destination by intersection.

 

This would be helpful because sometimes when meeting with clients all he/she can provide is a intersection and not an address.

 

Thanks

unfortunately, no for the D3. I know the Alpine supports this.

That's pretty lame. I just guided my mother to a local Sushi restaurant by plotting to the intersection on the Tom Tom Go she'd just bought. It's a very useful feature. I'm afraid I'm going to have to wait 'till Pioneer fixes that unfortunate omission before plunking down my cash for a D3.

 

It's a shame, 'cause I really want one, too.

Hey,

 

I just bought an Avic-D3 and put it in my 05 Nissan Frontier CrewCab with Rockford Fosgate stereo. It works like a charm.

 

You can do cross-street navigation. The manual explains how on pages 27-28.

 

Basically this is how:

 

Press Map - this puts the map on your stereo display.

Press Menu - this brings up the navi menu.

Press Destination (on screen) - this brings up all your destination options.

Press Address Search (on screen) - this brings up house # entry area.

**Ensure your zone is set correctly

**Leave house # blank

Press OK

Press City - enter your city here

Enter the first street of your intersection

**When the street list appears, there will be an intersection icon to the right

**Press the intersection icon to display all streets intersecting with the first street.

Press the street you desire

Press OK and you're on your way.

 

Hope this helps.

Oh, good. That makes me happier about the D3. Now I've just got to pay off my credit card and put aside a little cash.
