I received the Garmin and began using it immediately. It’s worked fabulously to save me time making my way around Detroit and Raleigh to do.

I’m sorry…I’m unable to review this product as it was prchased as a gift for my wife…but I would purchase the 265w next time, as it is the one I should have purchased because of the lifetime real time traffic, as I now understand it…other than that, I am told it works well…

I bought this machine a couple months ago, and I am using it occasionally. In town, I find it more convenient to look at the Google map (or any) before I leave. I expect it’d be a lot more useful when I go out of town.

What I received works good for long trips. Takes to much time to set-up for short local trips.

I ordered this product which qualified me for a Super Saver Discount resulting in free S/H. I also ordered the car charger and dashboard mount. On the Order Summary page it lists my items, their total charges and the free S/H. Imagine my surprise when I received email confirmation of the order that had an additional $14 in S/H charges! I checked their “Fine Print” and realized that while my Garmin was free to ship, my other items were not. Those charges SHOULD have been reflected on the order summary page BEFORE I pressed the “Place your order” button. I had no knowledge of the S/H charges until after they had my cc#.It is very scary to think that Amazon could add charges, any amount, WITHOUT approval from me and I would have no knowledge or recourse. It is a unethical practice in my opionin and I will not be shopping here again. There are too many other places who will be upfront with their charges!! I urge you not to shop here again either!
