Sure, but we have a dedicated button to put it in calm screen and hit it again and the screen will turn off entirely. That's something those hoity toity lariat and platinums can't do :)
Although I have never had hoity toidy envy, I think we are talking about different things. The following is the calm screen I am looking for a shortcut for.

Down button on the steering wheel gets there for me in one click (although I never use it)

Thanks. I have"This trip" as my default and with trip 1, 2, tire pressure,... on. so for me, it is three clicks on either direction. I don't want the quick access bad enough to turn off my other screens. Of course three clicks never killed anyone but it sounded like guys were saying I could do it in one so I was curious. No biggie. Just messing with this I realized the navigation option was in the same area which I forgot about after the first month since I use Android Auto. The truck is like my mobile phone. First month I go through all options and after that, anything I don't use regularly, I forget it is there.

This also works to quickly reboot the OEM Synch Navigation if / when it freezes up. Can be used while moving.
Here's another option that I find easier to do while driving:

Press the volume knob and the Fast Forward (next selection) button for 10 seconds.
