    Incomplete Product

    I wanted a GPS to replace my older one that had become slow and has a small screen. The Garmin 86 looked like a good fit but unfortunately it falls to the common pitfall of companies selling only half finished products. In this case they removed the built in traffic functionality present in older GPS models. Those have the traffic antenna built into the charger cable. For no reason that I can understand this one lacks the antenna and is not natively compatible with the old charger (Mini USB cable but USB C GPS plug). You can receive traffic through your phone but then you might as well use GPS maps on your phone and not spend over $300. I'm getting a stand alone GPS because I don't want to use my phone, so why should I have to use my phone? Thankfully the traffic feature isn't absolutely necessary, but it is very useful and to make a GPS that doesn't natively include this functionality is extremely bizarre. I can't recommend this GPS.

    The unit is much better than my car's built in navigation. Ordering online was easy and pick-up was a breeze.

    Had trouble with my first 86, took it to the Plover store, they asked a few questions, and gave me a new one. It works great, I am very happy. Thanks Best Buy Plover.

    Garmin 86 is outstanding. It took a while to get it synced with Alexa ; but once I got it paired it has been nice. It is also pretty accurate on location finding. Love the unit.

    It works well and can get you where you want to go without much difficulty. The display is big enough to see what you need to see.

    Love the app that allows me to make my own route. My job requires me to take a specific route (not the suggested route on gps). I can program each trip and save it.

    Easy to use and love the screen. The only thing I was disapointed in is that you don't carry a dash mount for this item.
