Back in the days when people could pay $$$ to change the voice of their cars GPS, the most popular soundpack in US was "the British butler".
On the other hand, "surfer dude" was pretty popular in Europe. Not sure how to interpret that one...
- httpsterio 5y agoHah, I used Surfer dude for a long time when I had a Nokia Windows Phone with Here maps. Seems like a lifetime ago.

I got accustomed to the “take the slip road on the left…” every time I got into the highway. But I can’t really complain overall, I tested it out by driving around Washington DC where roads layouts and intersection configurations are just insane and it’s lane assist was spot on, I actually enjoyed the drives.
