    Small Hiccup

    So far, i've owned two of these for about a month. They replace my aging Nuvi 255W and 265W. For the first several days, it was absolutely perfect. Maps are correct, etc, then one morning the one i use in my truck directed me on some dirt roads, etc, even though dirt roads were on it's "Avoid: list. Next, it directed me to go several miles east to then go west, and added about 25 miles to a 32 mile trip. Then it directed me to go several miles south to ultimately go north. I did a total reset, which requires you to back up your info first, because it erases all your saved favorites. Since then it has returned to operating like it did when i first got it. I love the large display. I like the way it splits the screen to show the correct road to take when necessary. Although the operation is somewhat different than my other Nuvi's, its close enough that you can easily add destinations, perform searches, etc. The cost of this unit is not a whole lot more than the updates for my Nuvi 265, which i could never get to download. I'm hoping the route issue was just a small hiccup, because I really like this GPS and look forward to using it for a long time. Had it not been for that hiccup, I'd easily rate it a 5.

    Garmin Nuvi 55LM

    This is a good unit once the address is locked in but that is the problem When you go to enter an address it first asks you for a street number. Then it asks you for a street. Then instead of asking you for a city next (and then a state) it starts searching for a number and street in the 5 state region you are in and it takes FOREVER for it to do that (about 30 seconds). Then, when it can't find what you're looking for, it FINALLY will ask you for a city and when you enter the city it will give you all of the states that have a city with that name. Then, you will have to start all over and enter the street number and street name again. It's a real pain ITA. Whoever programmed this unit must not be from the USA !

  • FANTASTIC GPS NUVI 55LM

    THIS IS A FANTASTIC GPS: 1) This unit is a lot better than any smart phone GPS. 2) It' simple to use. 3) Volume can be changed, and is quite loud for slightly hearing impaired people. 4) Screen brightness is adjustable and quite bright, even in sunlight. 5) You can set it to avoid turnpikes (toll roads). 6) Accepts a micro SD card to expand it's memory. 7) FREE Lifetime maps updates that are extremely important. It even redirects you when roads are temporarily closed, due to construction. 8) It has a number of categories to select from: shopping, grocery stores, fast food, restaurant's, gas stations, road side rests, hotels/motes, and more. Sometimes some of these places are out of business but this GPS still directs me there, this is not Garmin's fault. 9) There have only been a few times I typed a desired location, and Garmin could not locate the destination. Upon further research I discovered, in most cases: it was due to wrong information I was inputting. 10) It will display the mileage distance to your destination, along with the arrival time. 11) It displays the speed limit, of the road you are traveling on. Plus, it warns you when you are nearing a school zone. 12) You have a number of languages to select from. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS UNIT!

  • A useful GPS, not dependent on cell service. It uses satellite information.

    I've been a fan of Garmin Nuvis and bought this one as a gift. Works fine. Since this model has lifeftime updates I was able to update it with no problems. It works fine. It was my own oversight to see that this did not come with the back piece or suction mount, so I had to buy those separately. Take note if you buy any of these. Note that LM is the code for Lifetime Maps, which is a nice feature.

  • good value for the price !

    while this nuvi is a used, older model, it suited my purposes as a backup GPS for some of my vehicles. it has a decent display except in the brightest sunlight. it has not failed and is stil in use. i would definitely bought another used one like this again when needed...

  • 2nd 55NUVI

    Good, but not as good as the 55nuvi I had before. It has too many features to deal with and there was no manual book. I have to wait until I get back home to my computer to solve an issue.

  • Nice upgrade

    The 55LM was a huge improvement over the 52LM. While keeping it simple, they pack in so many features in this unit that it resembles some of the previous high end models.

  • DIFFERENT MOUNTING BACK THAN MY OTHER 52LM

    This did not come with a data cable. Can't update or erase previous users info. Also, how do you REMOVE THAT GARMIN mobile mount connection on the back. Don't need it because that sucion mount doesn't stick to ANYTHING... IT'S IN THE WAY OF MY TYPE OF DASH MOUNT.

  • Missing clip for back of unit to attach to a mount?

    Where is the little circular clip that is inset on the back of the unit... that lets it attach to the ball mount on a suction cup mount or other ball mount? This was missing, Hard to find a replacement, and makes this unit unmountable and a pain to rectify.. "We don't sell this clip separately, sorry" etc.
