garmin has a better mounting and accessory system for its product that makes it a real plus if you want to move quickly between multiple vehicles.

battery died (discharges from full to empty in seconds) and processor continues to slow (while driving, the vehicle sometimes takes seconds to update, causing missed turns and erroneous details).
from www.amazon.com
now i'm trying to understand why garmin elemitated the truck,bus,taxi, and emergency vehicle from their list of vehicles to choose.
from www.amazon.com
the arrow on the power cord plug should face forward, ie the front of your vehicle, away from you.
from www.amazon.com
for the 400.00 i paid for the system - i have definately made sure to have my atlas in the vehicle with me.
