Hello All, Sorry, this might seem off topic. Please is it worth it buying the Aftermarket Android DVD Navigation system? If yes, please help with best brand out there. Many thanks. |

Abdomox:Careful so you don't get one of those cheap Chinese headunits. If you want to a headunit upgrade, do it right. Budget like 150k. Also, check if it's compatible with your car. Steering controls, climate control, etc. Some cars even have their computers integrated into the headunit. Infiniti, for example. In those cases, you need a plug and play one. Completely bespoke for your car model. |

rationalmind:What is moderate Highway speed to you? And is it always advisable to use Cruise control on a smooth Highway? |

Abdomox:If nav is the main reason u want to get an aftermarket head unit then u might want to re consider. Those nav systems on head units are always outdated and with poor graphics. Most people in the us that drive cars with nav use their phones for navigation, and those cars that come with Android auto or carplay their owners don't even bother using factory nav, they just use Google maps. Unless u can get an Android head unit then I dont think any of those Chinese head units will ever give u a good navigation experience. With Android head unit u can use Google maps or download other nav apps. So if u are replacing ur head unit mainly because of nav, rhen better u look for a really good quality Android head unit or it won't worth it. But if what u care about is Bluetooth, reverse camera, SD and USB support for music and movies, then there are many head units that can give u that. |

nurey:pls wify likes rx350 09 do u thk its beta than d rav4 |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 5:33am On Mar 12, 2019 |
picaso313:By far. They aren't even in the same league. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by radautoworks: 8:15am On Mar 12, 2019 |
picaso313:Same class if vehicle but Rx=luxury SUV and RAV4=mid-level SUV. Of course she wants the Lexus! |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 8:17am On Mar 12, 2019 |
radautoworks:RAV4 is compact family SUV, RX is mid-size luxury SUV. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by radautoworks: 8:21am On Mar 12, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:used to be until they had three row variants |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 8:28am On Mar 12, 2019 |
radautoworks:Only for one generation, though. Size-wise, the Rav4 is still firmly in the compact SUV class. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by radautoworks: 8:48am On Mar 12, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:I'll cede to that but they are debating reintroducing it for 2019 or 2020. I live to debate another day! |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by picaso313(m): 10:13am On Mar 12, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:lol... thanks man.. whats up wit the maintenance n fuel consumption.. coz nah my head all d load go dey lol |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 11:04am On Mar 12, 2019 |
picaso313:RAV4 will be cheaper to own. The RX isn't expensive either, though, but it'll be more expensive than the Rav. Why not look at a Venza? Best of both worlds. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by picaso313(m): 12:37pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:the venza is better off? |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 12:49pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
picaso313:It's a better car than the Rav4, more prestigious too. And will be cheaper to own than the RX350. Sadly, Venzas are way more expensive than they have any right to be. It's almost ridiculous. If you're looking for the cheapest, most reliable, least expensive vehicle, just get a fully-loaded Rav4. CRVs are nice too, tbh. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by picaso313(m): 1:07pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:i actually like d CRV bt not too sure of d second hand value n durability |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 1:24pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
picaso313:Imo, it's not quite as durable as a Rav4, but if you treat it right, it will not let you down. Second hand value is worse than a RAV4 but it's also considerably cheaper too. Look at a 2013 or so CRV. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Nobody: 5:45pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:Sadly both the venza and Rav 4 are more expensive than they have any right to be. A 2010 tokunbo venza sells for between 5-6m and a 2010 Rav 4 is between 4-5m. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Nobody: 7:44pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
Chelseafan1:Personally, not more than 80mph, the law recommends 60mph sha As for cruise control, I'm not really a fan. It's enough I don't have to utilise my left leg, can't afford not to keep the right busy as often as I can. Make man no go sleep off only to wake up in heaven or in hell as the case may be ![]() |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Chelseafan1: 9:44pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
rationalmind:Lmao.....ur last sentence though. ![]() These days I don't run more than 60mph....less than 100km/h and even tho my car feels slow at that speed, I still prefer it. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by radautoworks: 10:14pm On Mar 12, 2019 |
rationalmind:Challenge yourself not to use the foot pedals at all and you'll see how unboring cruise is I do it all the time |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by picaso313(m): 6:43am On Mar 13, 2019 |
greenhulk:very expensive and its not like it has some high tech stuffs in it oo... the Lexus is even better in luxury |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 6:53am On Mar 13, 2019 |
picaso313:The Lexus is like two steps ahead of the Venza in terms of luxury. |
