Very easy to setup and use. And to move from car to car. The features are very well done and the Bluetooth phone pairing is great. The suction cup also works well. Highly recommend this over a factory installed unit. If left unplugged, it may take awhile for it to come back on...just be patient.

For my use this is a great GPS. I was looking for a nice large bright screen in a GPS and this one does the trick. I haven't used many of the bells and whistles yet; but the few basic ones I have used work great. It is fast to lock on, and has enough selections in the menu for map data to make it usable for just about anyone. The 6 inch screen is just the right size for my truck, and it makes it much easier for me to see the map layout. So far, so good. I will update my review after a few more weeks of use.

This is a great GPS that we use when we travel and rent a car. It is large enough and easy to read. It was easy to set up and works great sitting up on the dash. Easy for both my wife and I to see when we are in unfamiliar areas and both need to be alert to where we need to be going.

I have used Garmin's for many years. I notice as I get a bit older (68) the smaller screen is a problem from where I place it on my dash. When my last one was stolen, I decided to upgrade. I love the larger screen, the touch screen buttons to input addresses, etc. are larger and I like both of those. This model is updated on several levels, It shows traffic congestion, including how far the congestion runs more accurately. The split screen showing turn offs and ramps is done differently and is clearer. It also references turns based on what's near by, i.e. "turn left at Walgreens", "at the traffic light, etc." The only issue with that is the pronunciation of some of the names leaves a lot to be desired. Overall, well worth the additional cost.

This is a larger size then the last garmin I had and so far I really do like it, It is much easier to see then the other smaller ones. So far, it has been really easy to use and I would recommend this to others looking for a gps. The Garmin nuvi have always been user friendly.

Excellent system. I thought it was too big at first but now I'm glad I bought the larger screen. The voice command is a very nice feature and actually works quite well.

bought it and it has worked awesome. Couple faults; first, if you put waypoint in while traveling it wants to bring you back to your original route to continue journey, even if way point is miles away, 40 in my case (simple solution is to stop navigation and start again and it'll stop that). Second, traffic works but it doesn't take in account what direction so far as I've seen, you might be traveling south bound and it says a ton of traffic but the traffic is north bound. So I wouldn't seek an alturnative route till I knew for sure.

My Garmin-nuvi comes with built in maps and traffic maps, as well as rerouting. It is easy to program, and tells me step by step how to get there and back home. With the traffic updates, it tells me about construction and the best way to go. I highly recommend this product.

We have never had a GPS such as this so we cannot compare it it to others, we've only had On Star in the past. This GPS has Bluetooth and we can accept or ignore calls for hands-free calling which come in very clear. The screen is large and easy to read and user friendly.

Fairly easy to use, even though my husband and I are "electronically" challenged. Good size screen. The suction cup dash mount does not hold though, so will have to buy one of the mounts that has a weighted bottom.

This is a very nice system. It fits and looks great with my vehicle and it's color. I looked at other options, and other systems as well. When I found this one and saw that It uses the Garmin map s, I was 100% sold. I also like the fact that while driving, it gives you the speed for the road, street, or iInterstate you're driving on, and lets you know when you are exceeding that speed. It also have a back camera capability which I had installed, and DVD/ CD Play. I can't begin to tell you all the great functions this sys have. But if you're looking for A Navigation replacement, this is a great choice. And the Tech is really great in how he works, and the care he puts win his work..

Over all it's good. I would have given five stars, but you can't stay zoomed in for closer view of streets and names if driving over 35 mph or when a turn is made. This may only effect someone who uses it ten times a day like me as a service tech. Unit is a little pricy too($365 for unit and 3 year warranty) but it does has life time everything updates. Traffic reports are more accurate for my area(central Fla) Blue tooth is cool, but I don't really is it.
This is my second nuvi and the LED is far nicer than LCD screen. Plus transfer of old data (addresses and favorite places) was easy to populate from one device to another once you register the product via lap top (which is needed for any updates any how).

Very easy to use. Nice screen size. Great price. Bluetooth option is nice to have but a bit hard to hear in noisy situations; had to switch to either car audio or handset most of the time. This unit replaced my other Garmin that was 9 years old.

The large screen makes it very easy to read. The voice command interface makes it much safer on the road and the window mount works great. If you're going to buy a GPS buy this one.

The large screen makes it easy to understand and follow the directions with or without the navigator's voice on. The lifetime map updates is a huge bonus, as are the voice commands.

I'ce had several Garmins and this is by far my favorite. I love the 'Up Ahead' feature so I can see where things are. I really like the smart link to my phone and I did purchase weather and it came in handy over the holidays.

I only buy Garmin and due to theft of my old one, I decided to upgrade. The voice command is terrific. The traffic is the same. The screen is huge and that's a plus. Love it
