Customer Reviews

No longer cost effective to update my maps
Garmin needs to realize that most GPS units no longer sell for $500+. I used to update my maps every year on my modest Street Pilot C330, but it no longer makes any sense. I can sell it on eBay and pick up a new unit, with new maps, for less than what Garmin sells their map updates. $50+ for a map update might have been reasonable a few years ago, but GPS prices are a fraction of what they once were. Map update prices have pretty much stayed the same though. Very little changes in these updates each year too. Until Garmin gets realistic with their update pricing, I'll just pick up a new $100 unit every year or two, and sell the old one.

very disappointed
I bought this because my Nuvi had a 2007 map. However, the model I have said Street names... after taking over an hour to download the update...I lost the variety of voices I used to have and it no longer says street names!!!

Now I have to figure out how to get it back to the original software.

Very disappointed.

WHY!!!!
Obviously, Garmin has moved from the GPS business to the map selling business. The sad thing is that they don't seem to be able to do either very well lately. Why buy a Garmin system with outdated and error-filled mapping only to have to shell out more cash to buy an upgrade that is equally error-filled and outdated!!! I'm banging my head against the wall now.

Originally we loved our Garmin GPS, that is until we used it on a trip to Niagara Falls. Among the errors we encountered were: 1) being guided into a housing complex that was at least 20 years old while we were looking for a certain fast-food restaurant. The GPS just started taking us in circles once we were in the middle of the complex. 2) Having the software run us around the same block over and over while looking for a local tourist attraction. I knew we were going the wrong way but wanted to see if the GMS could figure it out - if only!!
