1. An in-vehicle navigation device comprising:
- a facility information designation unit in which a user selects information pertaining to one or more facilities to be searched;
a threshold value setting unit that sets a threshold value of a search criterion of the one or more facilities;
a present position detection unit that detects a present position of a vehicle;
a facility information selection unit that selects at least one facility satisfying the threshold value set by the threshold value setting unit from the information designated by the facility information designation unit; and
a display that displays a list including at least one selected facility, where said user can dynamically select from the list a specific facility;
a route search unit that, when the present position detected by the present position detection unit is on an expressway and the selected facility by the user is outside the expressway, outputs a search result of a guiding route from an exit of the expressway to an entrance of the expressway by way of each selected facility to a display unit to display the search result.
