Default North Texas IS Owners. Navi question, please help

Last night, I took George Bush turnpike to Carrollton from Las Colinas and I was very surprised the tollway between TX161 and TX-190 was not on the Navi map. I thought the tollway was there since the end of 2004?!

Do anyone know the 2007 navi disc has any update in that area?


Thanks for help

Peter

i cant really answer your question since i have an 06, but i have noticed the same thing!!! when i first moved here last yr it really confused me and i ended up taking the wrong exit a couple of times.. it doesnt bother me so much now, since im pretty familiar with the area, but i was surprised by that glitch...

Is it on Mapquest? Mapquest uses very recent versions of Navteq's digital maps. (Navteq is the digital map provider for the vast majority of the in-car factory and aftermarket navigation systems)

I checked Mapquest and the tollway was in it.
My guess is that 2006 map disc was probably only updated to 2004.
Any 2007 owners? Please help.
