Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Previously owned a Garmin nüvi 40LM. Had to replace it when the USB connector died. I was extremely satisfied with the Nuvi 40, and out of necessity; decided to try this model of Garmin GPS. Frankly, it is garbage. The drive 51 is very often inaccurate in telling you when to turn, particularly in more rural places. The unit often does not identify turns until you are in or past an intersection. Despite setting the unit to avoid unpaved road, it constantly sent me to unpaved road, particularly while in Vermont. The unit often makes you drive in a circle, literally; before setting back to the needed road. The touch screen is too sensitive and you are constantly needing to head back to the correct screen. While in the car, you can't use just any old USB charger when you need to charge other devices while driving. You must buy a different Garmin made charger., And oh by the way, if the lighter socket is right behind the gear shift, you can't even plug in the additional garmin unit until you are in gear. You would think they'd they'd have designed it to bend 45 or 90 degrees. Whole towns which appear on a printed maps are missing or misidentified with this unit. You best have a printed map with you at all times. It is very hard to change the route with this unit. There are other things you find very irritating with this unit. If you will be traveling outside of very developed areas, look elsewhere for a GPS. So far as I'm concerned this unit is much more of a hazard than a benefit. ~~~ I HATE THIS UNIT ~~~
