Some people never learn. It should be 1) Wife, 2)Best Friend 3) Girlfriend, 4) Attorney...etc. Mix it up, mix it up. It's so easy to make a mistake.

How the hell do you activate the 3D Map? I can't seem to find anything on that. Mine just shows the regular Map view.

It's not called 3D. It's called "map with perspective view" or something like that. Turn on split screen and go to split screen content. It's about half way in

Sweeeet. More toys to play with tomorrow.

As of now I learned about new presets, how to get the "3D Maps", and how to get the radio to turn off with the car if I'm not ready to lock it yet (press the "Start" button twice).

Incorrect. There is an option for 'perspective view in 3D', go to map views, then additional options and you will see a check box for 'show perspective view in 3D'.
