This GPS was purchased as a gift for my significant other, but I really love it's ease of use myself. After reading that cars with built in GPSs have lower resale value because of how quickly technology changes, I particularly wanted one that was portable, not too expensive, of good quality and most of all, easy to use. This one met all my requirements perfectly and has even exceeded expectations.

The StreetPilot c340 provides in-car navigation that is simple for anyone to use directly out of the box. After selecting a destination from the user-friendly touch screen interface, Garmin's text-to-speech feature tells users the name of the street, when to turn, and in what direction. If you miss your turn, the c340 automatically calculates a new route to the destination. Notification of traffic delays is a c340 option that lets drivers see congested areas via a color-coded map. This feature lets users avoid traffic by simply pushing a button that will calculate a new route. This traffic awareness is made possible via the new Garmin GTM 10 FM TMC receiver that connects to selected Garmin street navigation products. The GTM 10 receives digital data from specific FM broadcast stations in select major metro areas throughout the United States and Europe.
