Is there a setting that I have to change to get this to work? I GPS is enabled, it knows where I am, it just doesn't stay centered over my vehicle.

Help?

Make sure you have "My Location" checked in the menu.

Mapquest isn't yet working for the Touch Pro, but they're working on it.
at under $5/mo, it's the best bang for the buck out there. It also pre-caches the entire route in case you lose your data signal. It'll have some of the surrounding area to reroute you if you get off track as well, but if you go too far it has to recalculate. if it can't get data, it'll just show an arrow pointing you towards the road.
POI are limited only by the interweb, and i almost always get phone numbers with the option to call, plus gas prices (no diesel tho...) and other things.
I've been using it for a few months and i've been satisfied with it.
But, again, they have not yet got it working here.
