    So far I have been very satisfied with the Garmin 51LM 5". I prefer the screen size to my 4" Garmin Nuvi. I have had that one since 2009. Did not expect the battery to last that long but it's still going strong. The Garmin 51LM gives me more information then my previous one. It's taking some time to get use to all the alerts that my previous Garmin never gave, like when I'm going over the speed limit or need to take an exit, etc.

    I have own Garmin devices for over 10 years. This is a very good unit and the traffic alerts are accurate. The only issue I would like to see changed is the ability to route to an intersection by inputting the cross streets. Sometimes I don't have the exact address but know the street I need to get to while traveling out of town. That feature was available on my older GPS unit before I finally upgraded.

    The sound and picture are great. I only had a couple issues. One was that it out me in the wrong lane prior to an exit so that I had to cross three lanes in less than a quarter mile in order to get the exit. The other, when I reached my destination, it told me I was arriving I was at the driveway. If I hadn't been looking for the sign I would have passed it before the navigator got the sentence out.

    We had an old Garmin and that could be updated, but it was going to cost us as much as a new one. Good pricing
