Truly the best satellite GPS unit
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Although it looks like there are a maddening number of settings and options, in the long run, there are all worth while eventually, although not all at the same time. So, get to know your GPS unit and it will help you in so many ways. Also, get the big screen. If you're going to keep the unit for a few years, you may as well make a good impression to the folks you will be seeing on the road.

Average GPS
|Posted .No, I would not recommend this to a friendI was not satisfied with this GPS. I returned it. I think I did not like it because I was familiar with the TomTom GPS. The first time I tried using it, I took me though town on narrow little streets that I would not normally drive on. Also the route it took me on was way out of the way. Personally, I did not like it.

Q: QuestionDoes this one require bluetooth app for TRAFFIC? We want one that's not bluetooth dependent.
Asked by Irritated.
- A:Answer Yes, this device requires a Bluetooth connection to a smartphone to receive the live traffic. Vehicle power cables with built-in traffic receivers are available for purchase as optional accessories for your device, should you prefer or need to use this method over the default traffic solution.

Asked by Erictorres.
