Just a newer version of Garmin. I typically update every 6-7 years anyways. Don't use it for much and only at work. No issues with it.

Garmin 52 is a piece of Garbage

This Garmin 52 is a piece of garbage.
I previously had one for 9 years and had very good luck with it.
The first thing I did when I took it out of the box was to update the software and maps.
When I connected it and tried to use the traffic function, I was told I was using an incompatible power cord. After some research it appears there are 2 flavors of the 52 and one model doesn’t actually have the traffic function even though the button exists. I see no where on the unit or the box where the model number is identified. (poor marketing practice)
It can’t seem to find any location I want to go to. Yesterday it took me down a dead end street and told me my location was on the right. It wasn’t. I stopped and restarted my trip and now it told me to back track from where I had just come. My wife spotted the store on our left. I was sitting in the parking lot and it was telling me to continue down the road and turn right.
Time to return it and buy something else.

Worked right out of the box just as it should. Like other Garmin products it is reliable and easy to use.
Old school for some, but it serves a function for us.

Overall, it's a pretty good GPS. We've had 2 other Garmins, but this one is harder to navigate the screens and the MPH should be a little bigger.

I bought the GPS for my husband for Christmas and he really loved it. He was looking at it the first time we were in, so I knew what kind he wanted.
