I just returned from a road trip in New England/New York state. At first we used my niece’s iphone GPS but it was slow and hard to read. Also she accidentally turned off the sound and couldn’t get it back. Then we used my Garmin (I’m looking at it right now but all it says is Garmin so I don’t know what model it is.) The thing is great. My favorite features are that it shows a graphic of how many highway lanes there are and which one or ones you should be in and it shows a picture of the actual highway sign you will see. Really easy to use. I was disappointed however that it doesn’t say “recalculating” when you miss a turn. I had that on my old one and I liked it though I suppose it isn’t really necessary. This one recalculates but doesn’t find it necessary to tell you about it. I would probably never actually get around to updating the thing so I don’t care about that feature.
