Couldnt agree more which is why I am hoping the Apple play will fix that. The company that makes the nav for Harley also makes it for BMW cars and they are horrible! If I can use my phone which is what I do in my car then problem solved
I have owned two GMC Sierra's in the past three years. Both have had voice activated GPS. I mumble and they catch everything I say which is pretty cool. So let's take this scenario: driving in an unknown area and want to find a Dunkin' Donuts:
GMC (or any auto GPS) Me-"find Dunkin' Donuts near me". GPS- "I think you want to find a place of interest", Me- "yes". GPS- "state type of place of interest", Me- "Food", "Coffee", "Dunkin donuts". GPS- "sorry, did not find anything"
Now Android auto: Me- "find Dunkin' Donuts near me". Android auto- "found six within 25 miles showing all on current route"
Seriously, auto and motorcycle manufacturers have no clue how to develop or use GPS compared to android or Apple
