Works better than I imagined.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never had a GPS device before, so I really was not sure what to expect, in my opinion this device is remarkable. In addition to giving directions, both verbally and on the screen, it tells you your present speed, the speed limit of the roads you are on, names of streets you are on as well as names of cross-streets as you approach them. The verbal directions it gives allows you to continue to drive without taking your eyes off the road. I wish I would have bought one of these sooner as it does make driving easier if you are in an unfamiliar area.

Lifetime Free Map Updates
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have bought several Garmin GPS units over the years and each time they had additional new features. BUT they did NOT come with free map updates. After having our most recent Garmin for several years, when we went to do a map update, it was going to cost close to $50. We got this unit on sale at Best Buy for just a little more and it comes with FREE LIFETIME map updates. The Bottom Line: Garmin is the best and the FREE map updates make it a home run winner!!!

Great Navigation
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the big screen, many view options. My only complain is that it splits roads - if you are traveling on the same road for lets say 50 miles, it will show you directions in chunks - instead of saying Road X - 50 miles, it will say Road X - 10 miles, then again Road X - 10 miles, so unless you open directions for a full view and scroll thru it - its very annoying not knowing the total distance you have to stay on that road.

Easy to use right out of the box
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Garmin because my old Navigon was no longer supported for updates. A very simple test for how well the Garmin worked: it gave me correct directions home. Most online directions and several GPS devices seem to think my house is several blocks north of its actual location but this unit was spot on. I figure if it gets my home right, I can trust the directions it gives me going anywhere else.
