Bought an updated model GPS for wife's car a couple of years ago. After some routes on roads that weren't on the database recently, we decided it might be time for some database updates. Unfortunately the limited memory of the unit wouldn't handle the entire update. Initially downloaded loaded only the Eastern U.S. (our normal touring region), This update went a lot faster than the update earlier on an older unit. Bought some additional storage, reran the update which included the entire U.S.and was done in minutes. Garmin continues to be top notch in my book.

The nautical unit that I used on our boat was equally was satisfying, with lots of nice features. Go Garmin!

A lot of information for a buck. Too much of it "flabby" with artsy presentation. Could be tabulated much more concisely. The $180 "special deal" screen deceptively leads one to accepting a service they might not need (I don't and didn't). The information concerning the car we had just purchased was incorect as to model and trim (listed as an LE, is actually an XLE; listed without leather seats, but it actually does have them). Overall, 20 pages of information could possibly be reduced to 5. Satisfied, but not bowled over.
