I would think that a device who's only purpose was to navigate would do a better job. I am on a trip on route 66 and then on way back Mt Rushmore and Minneapolis. Along the trip there were places it couldn't find. There were times it would reset putting in an address. I am not impressed. I have had to use Google map several times instead if the GPS. Now when it works it navigates well which is why it at least got a 2.

Not as user friendly as some Garmin GPSs, but has free map updates. Not a GPS for those who like to find restaurants, etc. on trips - you need to put a lot more up front effort into the searches. This is really more of an item to use before you set out on a trip and can plan out exactly what you want to do, then input your route. It does not help you much once you get going. This is because it is harder to make changes to routes or to "look" around you for places like restaurants. It definitely sits in my glove box much more than my Garmin. But, this item has lifetime free map updates, which is important. Also, Garmin has absolutely horrible customer service related to their for purchase map updates. In spite of the inferiority of this product, I still prefer buying it over a Garmin.

I like the TomTom GPS. The only problem is that it doesn't have all the address numbers. It will take you as close as it can.

finds my location quickly. Good landmarks. Increased time to input locations to drive to because it is for the USA instead of picking a state. Need to input full name as well as state to get a choice. Variable ability to find points of interest. Some spot on and others just can't find. Only used a few times so still getting used to.
