An Electronic Map Right in Your Car!
2 of 2 found this helpful Each driver in our family has one of these units. Our teenager is so impressed with this that she persuaded a group of her friends to purchase this as a present for another friend just getting her license. Without the group contributing, the cost of the unit would have been prohibitive. The Garmin is accurate so long as you have a physical address for a location and the unit has been downloaded with map upgrades within a reasonable amount of time (a year or so). Garmin doesn't recognize short-cuts right away so it takes you on main routes from Point A to Point B. It does, however, "catch on" to a variation of a route when you alter your journey to route more familiar or preferable to you. We like best how Garmin tells you the time you will arrive (very accurate), allows you to program "favorite" destinations so that you don't have to type in an address, shows your route on a close-up or large-scale map, that you can anticipate left or right turns by hitting the "next" button (helpful to know which lane to drive in) and gives you the ability to look up restaurants, motels and other locations by category when you don't have an address or, for example, just want to find a good Italian restaurant. We least like that Garmin doesn't know new roads or names of roads (has to be plugged into your computer for downloads) or takes you on a route that seems to be longer than necessary. Oddly, it seems to take an "attitude" in its voice when you vary from the route Garmin has calculated. Our family would recommend the Garmin because the good features and its utility vastly outweigh the things we dislike about it.
