Tahoe Hybrid Navigation Menu Set as Default
 
Howdy! Just looking to see if there is any known way to make it so the Hybrid tab of the menu is displayed by default on every start up instead of having to go to it every time.

Thanks!

I think I read somewhere that there is no setting to set the Hybrid screen as default.

I too would like the hybrid screen as default. 99% of the time I know where I am so the GPS display is useless (the GPS system is rather useless in general. My favorite line is "Proceed to route start for guidance". Most of the time if I knew that I wouldn't need guidance! But I digress)

If you are into hacking, one option is to build a device that would create a single contact closure when the vehicle starts. The contact closure would bridge the manual button making the car think you pushed the Hybrid button. It may need a time delay to let the electronics get started before making the contact closure. Discrete component one-shot circuits are common or you could make one using a Arduino type controller. None-the-less I have not created one to set the hybrid screen.

Very interesting suggestions! I may go that route.

Thank you

If you do, post back here the results. Inquiring minds want to know.
