I have now had this GPS for one year. This is my second Garmin GPS, my first Nuvi 500. I use this GPS for work each day. It locks up at least a couple of times a week. I have to unplug it, then plug it back it. Then hit stop, then unplug it again. Once I plug it back in then I can go to the recently found trips and start my trip again. It's a pain to do it that way, but it's the only way to correct the problem. I like Garmin products, maybe I just have a lemon.

Unit is good for what it does, but Garmin could do a lot better. Garmin needs to visit with people in field and see what is needed.

Item was delivered fast and was just as advetised. This GPS works great on my motorcycle. My friends are buying these also. Really nice GPS

well got my Nuvi and so far like it, but to be honest i have not used it yet as much as i plan to (planning routes for motorcyle riding between points A and B and not taking the shortest distance between two points. So far the only thing negative is that i did the upgrades to the maps and it overwrote the topo map. called Garmin and they sent me the US 100K top DVD. Seems like they would have this bug fixed... maybe it just a feature :) Anyway I am still waiting to use for what i purchased it for -- bought for motorcycle on and off road, horseback riding, hiking, etc. The Topo maps are not updated like i thought they would be actually pretty poor --- the one trail i looked was not on the topo map and it has been around for at least 6-7 years and is on newer paper maps. Still need to learn how to use Map Source and Base camp better. Over all it appears to be what i wanted and the RAM mount works well. Oh Garmin needs to provide or offer a choice on which cable you want luckily i had a AC power charger and USB cable, even had a spare car charger.
