Good one
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only difference between the low end model and this model is the screen clarity and bluetooth connectivity. But if you car is latest and has bluetooth connectivity then the bluetooth feature is not useful

Great screen
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mainly purchased because of screen size and it is great. Like the new function to size map to expand view. Hate the fact that I haven’t been able to download lists of coordinates like the old Garmin.

Great GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.GPS works great. The voice command is a really good feature. Sometimes you have to repeat the address more than once. I would have given a five star if the command feature was a little better.

Nice Display and Features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used my brother-in-laws Garmin on a trip to Colorado and fell in love with it. After we got back bought one for us and have no regrets. I know we can use the smartphone but we're not always within coverage traveling and so far this has never failed. Also during times like evacuations cell service gets overloaded. The Garmin maps shows all of the roads so you mighht be able to get around traffic more easily than trying to look at paper maps. Hope we never have to try that out but like knowing we have that potential. Gave it 5 stars but will update shoud we encounter any problems.

Good GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like that it can connect to my Wi-Fi network to get updates. Nice that it shows the speed limit of the road I am on. Don't like the very short battery life even when it is brand new.
