I'll have to check in the morning to see if it stays active or if I have to go to the menu and select it each time. I never saw anything on the map (but never encountered traffic) but if I go to the traffic info tab it listed all the traffic situations, as well as what road they were on and how many miles from me it was.

It is most definitely FM based. AS an FYI... With HD radio the FM coax is directed to the HD module and it takes over the regular and HD station tuning. In order for RTTI to work, the FM signal must be split so that it also goes to the CCC unit.

Any explanation as to why yours was (presumably) factory enabled?

Probably also means you live in a semi-sane area. When I zoom out on my map I don't even see streets any more - just a blur/blob of road hazard, construction, traffic and accident warnings. When I use nav to even go a few miles it re-routes me multiple times because of how spontaneous the traffic reports come in.
