Good Deal for the Money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these nav systems in a very basic way vs using a lot of features... this was a great deal for the money, performs consistently well. would have liked the screen a bit bigger but trade off for the price..well worth it

Trust it more than my phone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this Garmin GPS because I was using my I phone as a GPS, I found that many times it took me to the wrong address. I had owned a Garmin previously, so I went back to Garmin and have not looked back since. The online support and updates are great.

Bought to replace older Garmin

Lot of great features on this GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This GPS has an understandable voice and warns you when a speed zone or school zone is coming. Very easy to follow the directions. Quickly responds to route deviations. Has more features than we have in our built-in GPS in our other vehicle.

better than my last Garmin, but lacks features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like it better than my last Garmin, because I don't have to enter a zip code ot town for each address I want to go to. My old one allowed me to SAVE trips I had taken that were in my RECENT folder. This one does not.

Great GPS - simple to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old GPS finally quit on me and I wanted to replace it but not spend a fortune. I was able to catch this on sale for $99 and am very happy with this GARMIN product I've never been disappointed with the brand and it's very simple to operate out of the box.

Great GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for a trip with my grandkids. The GPS worked flawlessly all the while we were on the trip. It showed points of interest as well as places to eat and gas up. I believe it saved us at least an hour of travel both going and returning.
