    We replaced our old Garmin GPS with this model and could not believe the difference. It's instantly on and ready to go. I love the fact that it warns you on weekdays when you're coming up to a school zone and smart enough to know that on weekends the schools are closed. I love the fact that it shows you all the cross street names that you are coming up to and Ya-Da, Ya-Da, Ya-Da. You won't be sorry with this unit.

    Garmin has improved upon their already superior GPS. As usual this Garmin is easy to set up and easy to use. If you are familiar with Garmin GPS devices or not you can use this device within 5 minutes. I have tried other brands but I prefer Garmin GPS devices and would not consider anything else.

    I am recently arrived in Virginia and find the Garmin GPS, my first GPS, of great assistance in moving around the area. Easy to use and clear.

    Once you explore all of the things this GPS can do you find yourself using it more than you really should. Helps plenty in Boston/Cambridge area by indicating which lane you need to be in.

    Product was relatively easy to use and route was accurate. Would like to see easier route modification ability.

    I just got it and it's a great improvement from my old nuvi 200. However I'm disappointed with 2 things: The power cable connects to the device itself instead of the mount. Every time I take it down to avoid sunlight I have to disconnect the cable. The other thing is that it requires another "device" in order to receive traffic information.

    I bought it because my old Garmin couldn't get map updates.

    It is very good but it be even more better if the SPEED LIMIT DISPLAY was a little bigger to visualize clearly from the drivers seat.

    Deceptive...

    I returned this unit today after realizing that there is no voice recognition as it states in the specifications. This was the main reason I bought it. Also, I assumend that lifetime traffic updates meant that traffic was included. I didn't know that I needed to purchase additional equipment for that feature. My last garmin had it included but not this one.
