Customer Reviews
I use this Garmin daily and is a great product. I enjoy the combination of dash cam and gps map all in one. The size makes it easy to see. It has an alarm for forward collision and lane drift. I have used this Garmin on a 6 state vacation road trip and it's accuracy was spot on. It also had a speed display of my vehicle and a posted speed for that section of road and the speed display turns red when I go faster than posted speed limit. The mount to window surface is secure and much better than earlier models. This Garmin is user friendly. Originally I had both a dash cam, and also a GPS which took up 2 locations on my windshield. The video from the dash cam part is great. This combination brings 2 items into 1 and keep my windshield view open and unobstructed. It is worth the price.
I got this to upgrade my very old Nuvi model. On those old GPS displays, the touch screen is SO frustrating and you have to really press and wait for it to recognize each tap. The old one was also frustratingly slow to recalculate the route if I detoured for something like a rest area or exit to get gas. The voice saying "Recalculating" becomes a running joke on long road trips.
