Bought a bigger screen GPS to use in my Semi. Wanted something that I could easily see what it had to tell me. This has worked like a charm. It also has improved information for the driver that my old one didn't have. Curve warnings. Railroad track warnings. Speed change warnings. It remembers repeated trips. Lets me know how far away I am from where I'm going. A few different user cues to deal with. But that's OK. What I would like that it doesn't have is being able to have it allow me to program certain businesses to show up automatically. Had that on another maker of GPS a long LONG time ago. Garmen still doesn't have it. But it does have icons that if you tap them, it will show what it does have.

I’ve just recently moved to Florida from the uk , I used a garmen sat nav in the uk and it was awesome! The one I purchased here is even better, I love the fact you can update the product on the computer and indicates much clearer regarding roads, restaurants etc, saves me every day.

The larger screen size makes it much easier to see details I missed with the smaller units.

I replaced my older Garmin. There was nothing wrong with the old one, but I decided to replace it with the larger screen and I am glad I did. It is much easier to see. I like the many updated features including that it tells what road I am driving on.

I moved across the country. This Garmin was invaluable during the 3 day drive in a rental truck. I drive an older vehicle and it is indespensible in navigating a new and rural area.

This is awesome! Nice sized screen, clear graphics, easy to understand! Perfect for our trips across the US! And I love that it comes with most of the accessories we could ever need. We plugged it in and used it as soon as we left the store.

It works really well and the big display helps when driving. I had a small issue finding one place with it but everything else was spot on. The biggest thing I don’t like is doing the first update and how it teies to do the same update over and over and over again. I had to restart it 4 times before it recognized the update had been done.
