    So replace it with nothing. Down grade my experience. That’s your solution?

    Use the radio which is full of ads and don’t use Google maps on my dashboard?

      People have been navigating with physical maps a lot longer than smart phones.

      Or use Open Street Map

      How is it a downgrade to disable a torrent of shit you don’t want?

      Drop some small change on a mobile-data-enabled tablet if you want Google Maps. Even better, use one of the many GPS apps based on Open Streetmap, or even Here We Go. Some of those have an excellent disconnected (from mobile data, not GPS) operating mode and route-finding that’s no worse than Google’s.

        How is it a torrent of shit that I don’t want exactly?

        It gives all I need, music, maps, Google assistant. In no way it’s out an issue.

        You’re just a malcontent looking for issues, with a chip on his shoulder.

        I might try some other software, but android auto is dependable and pretty good.

        What the hell are you talking about?
