    I agree, the more screens the better! I just dislike Honda's implementation in cheaper alternatives such as in the new Accord. The low-res touch screen is jarringly cheap looking in comparison to the hi-res main screen. Not sure how this is in the MDX?

    I'm curious, are the Navigation systems any good nowadays? We really didn't consider getting it on our 2013 Pilot as the DVD entertainment system made a lot more sense for us. Personally, I don't think we'd consider one unless it used Google Maps and could tie into a tethered device (or had an affordable plan) for Traffic and updates.

    The Accord EX-L Nav is exactly same. The lower screen looks cheaper but I think it's acceptable. However if the lower screen would be same quality you wouldn't need Audio+Phone also on upper screen.

    The nav system is decent and it does get FM traffic for free. Not quite as up to date as smartphone traffic app.

    Audi does have Google maps overlays but it requires 4G subscription. Not worth it for me to pay extra for that.
