A:AnswerYes, with the use of the free Garmin Drive app, this model can provide detailed forecasts, current conditions and animated radar images, plus receive severe weather alerts.
A:AnswerNo, it's a normal car GPS that doesn't single out truck-friendly routes. I use it in my tractor/trailer, but I use common sense when it comes to city streets and county roads. It gets me by fine, but if you're not sure you can navigate properly, it's best to get a truck-specific GPS.
A:AnswerYes, this model includes a Vehicle suction cup mount to attach the GPS to your vehicle’s windshield and a vehicle power cable that connects to the vehicle’s cigarette lighter/power port.

A:AnswerAs far as I know the only charger is for the car although you might be able to charge it through your computer or connect usb to a plug that you can then plug into electrical outlet.
A:AnswerYes. It has a cartoonish screenshot of the exit on one side of the screen & it shows an arrow for which lane or lanes you need to be in for the exit. The addition of the voice command is also a nice feature, it's a little sketchy at times but it's an option that wasn't there on my last one. The exit screenshot may not be for every exit (more rural areas) but so far it has worked great in the downtown city areas where being in the correct lane ahead of time is crucial in heavy traffic, it also has this for most of the surrounding suburbs.
