GPS display w/ roads/highways

Is there a way to display Interstates/highways in the GPS relative to your position?

Just checking..in my searches I ran across this example of a G1000 display and was wondering if this was possible in FSX.

To which I'd again reply, no.  There is no provision for any type of Rand McNally Road Atlas display with either FS9 or FSX...  :'(

Check out Abacus EZ-GPS.  It came with CoPilot Pro, but I think that you may be able to purchase it separately, check out the Abacus website.  Anyway EZ-GPS shows major roads.
