¹If you purchase a nüMaps Lifetime subscription (sold separately or bundled together with certain GPS models), you will receive up to 4 map data updates per year, when and as such updates are made available on Garmin’s website, for 1 compatible Garmin product until your product’s useful life expires or Garmin no longer receives map data from its third party supplier, whichever is shorter. A product’s “useful life” means the period during which the product (a) has sufficient memory capacity and other required technical capabilities to utilize current map data and (b) is capable of operating as intended without major repairs. A product will be deemed to be out of service and its useful life to be ended if no updates have been downloaded for such product for a period of 24 months or more. Unless otherwise stated, the updates you receive under the subscription will be updates to the same geographic map data originally included with your Garmin product when originally purchased. In some instances, your Garmin product might not have sufficient memory remaining for you to load an update to the map data, in which case you will need to either (a) select reduced map data coverage for your updates, or (b) purchase separately a microSD™/SD™ card (if and as applicable to your Garmin product) and load all or a portion of the map data coverage for your updates to the card and insert the card into the microSD/SD card slot contained in your Garmin product. If neither of the measures in (a) or (b) can be used to address your product’s lack of sufficient remaining memory, then Garmin may conclude that the “useful life” of your product has expired. Garmin may terminate your nüMaps Lifetime subscription at any time if you violate any of the terms of this agreement or your subscription. Your nüMaps Lifetime subscription may not be transferred to another Garmin product.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have been using the one I purchased in September 2014 and it is about 95% accurate (not bad with so many road changes).
I have taken it on three long trips through large cites. It works great getting through the crazy roads to navigate through the larger cities. The split screen is so helpful so you can actually see where to go when it seems there are so many lanes and exit and access ramps.
I love the time of arrival feature. I can actually tell people when they can expect me or even just plan my breaks along the way.
The speed limit is not always exact but it is correct very often. It tells me how fast I am going and the limit which really helps me from going too fast and speed traps. I also watch it if someone else is driving to suggest changing speeds.
I don't just use it for long trips. I use it locally just to find someone's house or a business. When away from home it is great to find a hotel, restaurant, attractions and more. I have taken it in to the hotel the night before on a trip and set the addresses of places I want to go the next day. When I set an address I can save it to "My Favorites" under it's proper name. It is easy to delete those addresses later.
I like to drive around the Ozarks where I do nature photography. I don't worry about the roads I take and where I might be because I can always punch in "Home" and easily get back.
Be sure to check the "settings". There are things you can select to personalize your Garmin. I had fun just changing the language when someone else was driving. Not so much fun when we missed a turn and drove 10 miles out of our way. :-)
The Garmin company also has great customer service. I was disappointed that a detailed manual does not come with the item. You can find a detailed user's manual on the Internet with table of contents and index.You can print only the pages that are useful for you. While looking at the manual I see that there are so many other things I can do with my Garmin including apps for fuel economy.
This is a one of those tools you wonder what you did without after you have it.
I have recommended this Garmen to many friends who ask me which one I would recommend
Update 12/29/13: Found out that if you don't input any address or location and just hit "View Map" the GPS tells you the direction you are traveling just like a compass. One glitch I noticed when I went on a trip to Orlando, The map says left turn but the audio says Right turn. No deal breaker because I just take a quick glance at the map arrow to determine which way to turn. The map is very accurate while the audio instructions needs to be patched so that it follows the map's direction accurately. This was after I uploaded the latest map from Garmin website. Otherwise, works like a charm. One thing I noticed on the trip to Orlando, The fastest way may not be the cheapest way. The GPS kept trying to get me to turn on the Florida turnpike even when I was traveling down or up I-95 which has no tolls. But it still got me to my hotel in Altamonte Springs without any trouble. At home I use it strictly as a compass to let me know what direction I am driving. Still very satisfied with the GPS.
Update: July 2017 - The GPS has been working great all these years of use. I use it when I go to a new address or as mentioned earlier as a compass. I also use it as a Address book. I have it in my car permanently covered up so no one will be able to know I have a GPS installed and try and break into my vehicle to steal it. The only CON I have is the Display now has three vertical stripes on it. Obviously it needs to be replaced. The stripes are very narrow but very noticeable. But it is not enough to cover up enough of the display where I can't read it. Garmin I believe charges around 80 or so dollars to repair your GPS no matter what is wrong with it. If the Display continues to get worse to the point it interferes with me reading it, I will probably purchase a newer better model since this model cost me $130.00 in 2013. If I would have paid more than $200 for it, then I would turn it in for repairs since it would be worth it.

The serial number of the unit was displayed for registration purposes which is good since this number could not be found in any of the literature. This unit has an on-screen volume adjustment which is better than the side-mount push-buttons my old unit had. Operation is straight forward with clear voice instructions and the name of upcoming streets, Graphics are excellent and the large screen is a joy. My first test in my front yard took a short time to acquire satellites but testing it out around my town proved it to be a perfect unit. Reviews of newer, more complicated models, were not encouraging but I imagine Garmin will fix them. This unit is solid and mature. With 4 free map upgrades each year I have no fears of being caught in a location without current road info.
We use the points of interest, restaurants and hotel info whenever we have to change our plans during our (retired couples) vacations. Thoroughly recommended.
