    Works great as advertised. 2 years and then speaker busted. Disappointed. $800 it should last longer than 2 years.

    She's quiet we're rolling. Her chirps we're slowing. She chirps a lot and hasn't failed me yet. I love the directional arrow because I hate wasting time! Do you want to get from point A to point B quickly? In that case, this is the device for you.
