I needed a replacement as my charging port broke after several years on my prior Garmin. Love the larger screen and the lifetime map updates are great with all the construction and new roads added in the region.

Bought a bigger screen GPS to use in my Semi. Wanted something that I could easily see what it had to tell me. This has worked like a charm. It also has improved information for the driver that my old one didn't have. Curve warnings. Railroad track warnings. Speed change warnings. It remembers repeated trips. Lets me know how far away I am from where I'm going. A few different user cues to deal with. But that's OK. What I would like that it doesn't have is being able to have it allow me to program certain businesses to show up automatically. Had that on another maker of GPS a long LONG time ago. Garmen still doesn't have it. But it does have icons that if you tap them, it will show what it does have.

I replaced my older Garmin. There was nothing wrong with the old one, but I decided to replace it with the larger screen and I am glad I did. It is much easier to see. I like the many updated features including that it tells what road I am driving on.

It is amazing that they can build such a great product. You are informed way ahead of time before you need to change direction. However, if you know the way the voice can be a little annoying as it informs you of every turn. Works great!
