Sorry to read about this but there is probably a good lesson to be learned here about navigation systems and I would like to add of my own, I took an off-road that my navigation suggested and that would save me time and I rode into the middle of nowhere for about an hour and I eventually found civilization and a gas Station. I never knew that gmc's could tow on fumes but mine did this day, lol. Keep those tanks full especially if you are the type that explores new routes. I'm sticking to the main roads from now on, lol

Luckily not my rig. Came upon this at the entrance to employee campground at Old Faithful. Probably was lost and trying to turn around. People seem to do strange things in Yellowstone. I agree probably a newbe mistake.

10-4 on traffic behind and ahead at the tight intersection. I was all the way over into an on coming left turn lane when a driver in that lane began cursing and waving the single numeral IQ indicator. I turned the steering wheel another half a round--big mistake. I should have stayed put and let the traffic move around me then pull forward. P.S. The built in navigation unit was checked by dealer and was found to be faulty and warranty replaced.

My father in law paid 1000$ for a kenwood with Garmin GPS and it's looney, it sends him straight, left and right all at the same time seems like and it's out of warranty.

Seems like there was something else going on here, the right side of the picture shows what looks like rescue guys, note the pants and suspenders, standing there and the left side of the picture has a ladder.

Too bad more information wasn't available.
