    We purchased because of a recent trip we were taking to Florida. The processing speed from start up entering locations is slow. I also found that the sound is not very loud when you a radio, road noise and a conversation with the person you are riding with. The graphics and the screen details were good,

    My built in car GPS is painful to update, this I can just plug in to the computer and go. I like have the GPX lower left of the windshoield in the corner of my vison rather in the center of the console where I need to take my eyes off the road

    My wife’s new car, Nissan Rogue SV, came without a navigation system. I guess 30,000 not enough money for Nissan, so thank you TOM TOM. No matter where she needs to go, unless she’s been before, she needs the comfort of a GPS.

    Have to be very careful and put in ST, Rd, Blvd, or will send you to another town 30 miles away even if you input the correct city in the beginning. Doesn't have an easy to see CANCEL button. Looking for a store in point of interest usually comes up with nothing. I use it alot locally as well so luckily I know when its going in the wrong direction. Brought it back and am using old one until it dies then will buy a Garmin I guess. Go back to old program-much better!.

    Not much has changed with car GPS systems since I last used one back pre-2010. Bought this one for a grandparent of mine who doesn't have a smart phone, and it was almost the same as the one he had had for the last 15 years.

    The quality and performance of this is ten times better then the use of a phone. Others was tell me to go with a Garmin but I am glad I didn't. Great picture,sound,quality, and price.
