• No, this GPS includes Free Lifetime Traffic Avoidance with no ads and no subscription fees. Garmin traffic is delivered straight to your nüvi – no smartphone or additional cables needed. >JF

• The power cord on the 2589 contains the antenna for the traffic. No external antenna is needed.

• I did not need an antenna for my nuvi 2589 LMT. The power cord to the cigarette lighter is the traffic antenna.
