    This unit is a piece of junk. if you are not typing in an exact address. it becomes frustrating to use. If your scrolling over the map. It constantly zooms when you don't want it to. It keep choosing location when you don't want it to. 1 hr battery. more like 10-20 minutes. very slow unit. I would have returned it but by the time I got a chance to actually use it, the return window had passed. now I know I bought the low end model. I got it for use in my UTV so I didn't have to keep using my phone. Something to keep on board and if it got damaged, so what. but I cannot get over the frustration this thing causes.

    My old Garmin went on the blink, and we replaced it with another Garmin, since the old one served us well for many a year. Although my first use of it in PA gave me incorrect directions and ended up on the Turnpike and it cost me $50 because I didn’t have a ticket.

    I purchased the Garmin -Drive 52 5" GPS and was amazed at how accurately I can get to a destination without any problems and being able to see and hear the directions given are a plus. This is truly what I needed for a long time and everything came with the purchase (setup instructions, charging cord and map updates).

    It works okay but your phone is just as good. I was hoping to hook it up and leave it up but the suction cup keeps falling

    It was easy to set up, and use. It got me where I needed to go. And I didn't have to listen to it "recalculating" every time I took a short cut close to home, it just made the changes and continued giving directions.

    We had a Garmin years ago then got a TomTom when it went on sale. The TomTom seemed less intuitive than our previous Garmin and less reliable. We've only used the new Garmin for one long trip, and it suggested an unusual route at the beginning, but overall we like it.

    At first I found it a little hard to enter street because sometimes you don't have to right one so I just add some numbers. I also use my garmin to just get to a city and how long it takes. I wish this garmin would allow you to just add a city and go from there like my old on did.

    Compact and generally very easy to use. Like the windshield mount, even if it occasionally drops off. Announcement of upcoming streets and speed limit changes is great. Have had some difficulty programming some addresses but not more than in my built in GPS. Great to see speed limit along with actual vehicle speed.

    Good device to have as a backup. Screen easy to see and road details are easy to see. Does not give you initial options to select which direction a person prefers. It only redirects you in the event you miss an exit or there is traffic. iPhone Maps is much more useful.
