It's very specific
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has a nice large screen. It knows when you are coming to a traffic light or stop sign. I only wish I knew that Canada wasn't included in the download. I could have used it recently!

Works great but has limitations
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The unit works great, but if you want live traffic reports you have to connect it to a phone. The only other problem I have found, if you have the unit plugged into charge while you are driving and you are using the unit at the same time, it will not charge. The only to change it, turn the unit off. This is not the best option as far as I see it. Otherwise the Unit works great.

Not a very good product

This new one lags it tells you to turn after you pass your highway or off ramp costing me hours at times to make a u turn while crossing the United States on vacation .

Great for most areas around town.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The device is great to get around in town. However, long road trips it's better to also have a map printed out for quickest route as the Garmin tried to guide me the long way.
