You know what?3. Speed limit if known is always shown. (This really should be an optional "always on" icon the driver's display cluster)
I totally glossed over your suggestion, but I think you've hit something big there. That, my man, is a top-tier basic feature that I'd pay CASH for. Right now! Assuming that FCA isn't going to do that for us anytime soon, I submitted this as a feature request for the Tazer JL Mini team. The big assumption, of course, would be whether or not that value can actually be queried from the outside the Uconnect radio. (I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but I really really want that functionality.)
TAZER JL FEATURE REQUEST SUBMITTED AS FOLLOWS:
You could probably tell that I'm a bit excited by your incredibly good suggestion. Even more so, since I stumbled across it in the most unlikely of places... a discussion of existing features that mostly go overlooked!*If* it is possible to pull not the vehicle's current speed, but to pull the current speed LIMIT from the navigation system, then you should offer a combined center-console display of both current speed and speed limit right on the dash. I have to say that those two things are THE two most common pieces of information that I reference throughout any trip of significant I make in my vehicle. Bar none. And I know I'm not alone!
ISSUES: Yes, this totally assumes that there's a way to pull that value from the Uconnect box. There is also certainly a dependency that the Nav application is loaded and running (and running in the background *may* suffice). Listen, I don't know if you can pull that value or not, but if you can.... AWESOME FEATURE, MY MAN. AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!
