    I have enjoyed using the Garmin - Drive 51 LM GPS. I have an older Garmin device but this one I like better. The improvements are all to my liking. The transition to the new device was very easy.

    I used a hand me down TomTom for a little while before buying this. So far this has proven to be a far superior product, both in user friendliness and quality.

    While a somewhat lower end device, lots of good features. I have an older Garmin and the Drive 51 is really a big step up. The UI is much more touch responsive being based on a resistive screen. I really like it.

    All the new neighborhoods are updated, and that makes it real easy to get around town (in the greater Houston area). I love the audio (heads-up) that lets me know which lane I need to be in before I need to be there.

    My car is often unlocked and my GPS units get taken from my tweaker step son who lives in a trailer on my land. This is not my first garmin and it didn’t disappoint. Just as good as ever and even easier to use!

    Easy to use. Good maps. Easy to down load updates from computer. I like the idea of planning a trip with lots of stops all it once. The speaker person has a clear voice and is easily to understand.

    Great tool to have when you travel the U.S. around the country . It's simple to use and convenient to take with you. I've use it in Utah and now I will be using it in Montana and Wyoming.

    I bought this to replace an older Garmin that I had dropped and cracked the screen on, and this one is quite an upgrade. I also like that my settings were transferred so setup was even easier.
