So this was the first GPS I've bought before. I bought it awhile before a big road trip I was taking to the northeast US (from Madison, WI) so I could get acclimated to it. Since, I've been on the trip and didn't get lost and argue with family members about where we were once (unlike most every other trip), so that was a big plus. I like being able to add via points when you don't agree with the route it gives you. Also, the time of arrival is pretty amazing, 3 hour trips on back roads and its within a minute or two of the right time. Only traffic or red lights seem to stop that from being right on. Was very helpful when deciding if we had time to make it to a party 3 hours away one day, we made it only 10 minutes late, just like the device told us 3 hours earlier.

A couple minor annoyances I had out east was when I wanted to go around NYC, I had a fairly specific way I wanted to take interstates to go around it, and even after adding a number of via points, it seemed to just turn the route planning in circles and really was hosed up, I ended up having to use it just as a "where am I" thing while following a good old map for what roads I wanted to take. I think when its in a major city, there's just too many roads for its programming to decide from that if you want to change it any, its a major pain. Also, for some reason going around Buffalo, it lost sattellite signals for a couple hours, and I ended up having to take the battery out and putting it back in again to reset it and get the signal back. Not sure what that was about, it only happened that one time.

But other than that, its been great. Very helpful at night when you're in a city you don't know and are trying to find a place to eat or your hotel 15 miles away in the suburbs and don't know where you're going. Normal atlases and state maps aren't going to have all those little city maps, and this thing not only has them all but tells you exactly when to turn and how long to your next turn.Get more detail about Garmin nuvi 750 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator.
