I have bought 3 of these particular Garmin models, mine and two for my grandchildren. Great size screen, the easy Garmin system, free lifetime updates, bluetooth connection to smart phone option. A lot of setting options. The visuals are easy to follow. I use my Garmin rather than the gps on my car. Easier to follow and more accurate. I bought this 61 model for the larger screen and many setting options and bluetooth to phone for hands-free calling. Great for grandchildren with no phone bluetooth in their older cars. This is a gift to each of my grandchildren as they start driving and get their own cars. My contribution for peace of mind to help guide them and protect them, especially when they travel and go to college. I recommend Garmin and have been pleased with this model.

Bought this GPS to replace an old TomTom that my wife uses. This is definitely much quicker at calculating and finding a signal/location. A little disappointed I didn't see that the traffic cable wasn't included. The connection to the phone works but is a bit tricky. I ended up buying the power cable instead of sending this back.

We needed a new GPS and purchased this because of the screen size. The traffic updates are a joke. You need to connect to your phone or purchase an additional power cord for $70.00.
