    Works well as a GPS should, no bells or whistles, but does the job. Biggest disappointment is NO PIN is required to unlock the system. You cannot pick a security PIN to lock the system so if it gets stolen, the thieves will be able to use it with no problem. Why did Garmin not put a security PIN on this device??
