    I have had a Garmin for many years and they just keep getting better. I understand from other sources that Garmin is the easiest of all the manufacturers to use and I truly believe that. good to go out of the box. The design is smart and easy to read.

    This is my first GPS for my car. I know I can use my cell phone to get direction. But I do not want to subscribe any cell phone data plan. To save money from expensive cell phone monthly plan, I bought this GPS not only for car use, but also I can carry it in my pocket whenever I go. I bought a Tom Tom GPS ,but I returned it within the same day. This Garmin model, actually all Garmin models I tested out, the voice is loud enough that you can hear clearly inside the car with window opened. Most important of all, this is a reputable band name. It gives me peace of mind.

    We bought this before we went on a one month vacation in our RV. It stinks. Has us on back roads some roads do not exist and it won't keep a charge from the USB/lighter power. Hope to return it when we get home!!
