Thanks everyone!!

By the way, the dealer mentioned that the software 16.2 screwed up about 3-4 cars that were being upgraded.... took them until the third day that I was able to receive my car back... did they have to change TCU? they didn't tell me anything... just gave me the key and everything is up and running...
How do I check if my TCU is a new one?? thanks!!

maybe based on the time of day, they would change color of the sky and map depending on the time of day...? just an idea....

Why not make it completly black in the night... Wouldn't that be realistic?

Another idea is having the mapping in night time mode for night driving... seems a bit bright when looking at the map during night time driving... maybe based on the time of day, they would change color of the sky and map depending on the time of day...? just an idea....

That's a good Garmin idea. At sunset and sunrise, the scheme changed.

OK I am seriously considering not getting the 16.2 upgrade when I go in to get aux input installed. I think my car has 13.something on it now. I don't have Nav. Is there a list somewhere of what has been added/fixed since v13 so I can judge for myself?
