Great for long distance travel.

I used this unit for travel from MN all the way to AK and back. The unit was very easy to use and made the trip a breeze. I would suggest that all RV travelers purchase one. The large screen was well worth the investment.

Great GPS Navigation System

Excellent product. The higher definition makes the screen much easier to see it in the sunlight. The larger fonds are easier to read. This gps is a real upgrade from my old drivesmart 60,

Reliable!

I've had this thing for years. Even though I've had several cars with android auto, I whatever, and several cars with gps systems i always end up using my Garmin instead. Easy to use doesn't glitch all of the time. Sometimes road updates seem a little off, but I like using this car gps better. Thought about integrating a trailer camera a couple of times also. I even wired a separate circuit for it through the dash so I don't have to use cigarettes lighter outlet or USB ports.
