![]() I would recommend to everyone THEN go through the online manual and cut & paste and create a smaller version of what you really WILL USE otherwise your head will spin due to the complexity & sheer volume of features. I still recommend due to the screen showing you the EXIT sign to look for, the Speed Limit, etc - just need to spend a LOT more time learning the 10 basic steps which they complicated way too much - Saving something to Favorites SHOULD be SIMPLE - but so far, I've learned how to save Longitude/Latitude 's a start though. The bonus on this model is the Pedestrian feature so if you are traveling you can use in your car and also on your belt to walk around & get to the places you want to see. I probably will not remember how to use 1/10th of it -but with ease it got me from Point A to Point B (still cannot figure out how to Save to Favorites) as they made some features that were SO EASY on previous models extremely complicated. I am OVERWHELMED with all that it will do and created a cheat sheet that is PAGES long -because there is just SO much capability. I just had the chance to use it in two different cities - Pittsburgh PA and Tampa FL. Mind Blowing features, create a cheat sheet-VERY confusing at times ![]() I am hoping Garmin (which is a US Company) finally gets around to offering a hard wired – zero battery unit that can be mounted in the car and left there – no matter how hot / cold it gets. I only own a dumb (read that CHEAP) phone! So, Garmin is my choice to get from point A to point B with the least hassle. Smart phones running GPS / Google maps generally offer as good or better results, but alas. It will shorten the battery life big time. I also have learned to remove the units from the cars during excess summer heat / excess winter cold. In the wide open spaces of suburbia it can NOT be beat. Particularly routing through New York City it is NOT to be trusted. Best bet is to use Google maps, print out your route and have that hard copy as a safety net/ backup to insure against its traffic avoidance insanity. ![]() Even when programed to avoid rerouting around heavy traffic congestion – it has a mind of its own, and that is NOT a good thing. It's biggest drawback is the TRAFFIC function. Garmin is so easy to use and 98% of the time right on target. Each has a Garmin in its glovebox for those times when you need to navigate somewhere we haven’t been before. ![]() Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria, Andorra, Angola, Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Armenia, Aruba, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan Republic, Bahamas, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belgium, Belize, Benin, Bermuda, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Brazil, Brunei Darussalam, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Canada, Cape Verde Islands, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, Chad, Chile, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Democratic Republic of the Congo, Denmark, Djibouti, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Fiji, Finland, France, Gabon Republic, Gambia, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Gibraltar, Greece, Greenland, Grenada, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kiribati, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Latvia, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macau, Macedonia, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Mali, Malta, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mexico, Moldova, Monaco, Mongolia, Montenegro, Montserrat, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Nauru, Nepal, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Niger, Nigeria, Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Republic of Croatia, Republic of the Congo, Romania, Rwanda, Saint Helena, Saint Kitts-Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Serbia, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Solomon Islands, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sri Lanka, Suriname, Swaziland, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Thailand, Togo, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Turks and Caicos Islands, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu, Vatican City State, Vietnam, Wallis and Futuna, Western Samoa, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe ![]()
