Seriously buy this GPS! It is so great in every way. I am a police officer and it saves my butt every day. It shows the next cross street and even weather radar. It tells you when there is a update and it is always on your side. THANK YOU!

I am very happy with my purchase, although it takes a little time for it to be up to date with all the current construction.
I love the bluetooth, live traffic updates are wonderful when traveling to work everyday.

Bought this for my daughter who was traveling across the country and insisted her phone was enough. This GPS has so many great features and is so convenient and easy to use, my daughter now uses it every day instead of her phone.

So far so good. No problem whatsover. It routed just right when I missed my turns. I updated the map online so that probably helped. Interface is easy enough to understand and see. Alexa is a great help.

I haven't completely set up or used the functions that are available. I really like the screen size, options available. I am slow to set up all that is available because I am not a tech giant.
Anxious to get the Alexa and OK, Garmin stuff going.

Love the size and hands free features of this GARMIN. Gave it as a gift to my somewhat resistant fiancé for the occasions when her phone map wasn’t working. She loves it and uses it all the time, now!

Nice unit it gets to where you need to go ok Garmin is good but sometimes it doesn’t understand the address ,paired with the phone I can hear it clearly through my SUV but it has a 100to 200 feet error margin which you can compensate for by checking the street name

I love it. I now have Alexa in my car and can continue my audio books wherever I am. Navigation is easy and works great. I also bought the back-up camera to go with this and it works seamlessly.

It is a great product. However, sometimes it doesn’t know where the exact place is and I wish there is a way to send the info to garmin for improvement purposes. I wish it had traffic light icon like apple map. I used to use apple map and it is better in some ways but when its come to driving on highway exit and lane changes nothing can touch garmin. I will buy another one.

Gets you from point A to point B. What more could you ask for. Took a bit to find the satellites for my particular unit but once found it performed as expected.

Got updated Garmin 65 which has a large screen. A bit of a learning curve but works well. Updated with wifi which is a bonus
Need to download the manual to learn all the functions. Works well. This is my third garmin GPS and I am very happy with their products

Very nice unit, screen is large and easy to read. Garmin has always been my favorite gps. Voice recognition works well, the quieter it is inside the car, the better it will understand you.

This is a very good product. Easy to use and navigate in new areas of the country. It seems to take a bit of time to locate the satellites, but will always catch up.

This Garmin gives great instructions when on route to a destination. There was a map update for it which was easy to do, but time consuming. Would recommend to a frind.
