Default Goofy Nav unit

Is it me, or has anyone else noticed the Navteq routing info to be incorrect? Aside from the outdated 2004 information that's in there, I repeatedly find the Nav unit directs me to a route that is far from the fastest or most direct. Today, after requesting a fastest route, it put me through the downtown area and all the stoplights before putting me on an expressway that had been running parallel to me all along. Not a fast route; more like half-fast.

This unit has been the only technological letdown on the whole car. So in the grand scheme of things, no big deal. So those out there pining for the in-dash Nav unit, rethink that desire and pop for a TomTom.
