I do love my Garmin Nuvi 360 however, I have found a few problems.  Sometimes the route it takes you on just doesn't make sense.  Like the time it took us down a seasonal one lane dirt road on the quickest time setting.  Thankfully we weren't hauling the travel trailer at the time!!!!  That is the thing I mean about not relying on it completely.  If your common sense is telling you NO don't take that road then don't!!!  Keep on going and it will recalculate.  I do however, love that no matter where I am the garmin provides me with an instant access to all things in the area with address and phone number.  For example, I am in another state and want to find a pizza place.  I search for restaurants in the area and I find one in no time.  There are so many other options that I haven't used yet...like listening to audio books.  I did have a problem with the bluetooth option....the conversation was very scratchy and almost impossible to understand.  Overall, I do like it very much you just have to remember it is a machine that does not have common sense.
