Garmin - StreetPilot c340 Reviews

Now I know I can always find my way - a huge relief!  It was really nice, when to be stuck in a traffic jam, to be able to take a new route home around the traffic, and know that I could still find my way home - with the Garmin. It's very easy to use and only requires touching the screen. However, I still haven't figured out (if it is possible) how to "look ahead" to see what follows after the next turn - this is somewhat disorienting on a trip longer than a few miles - to not know what comes after the next turn. Also, in the Washington, DC. area it doesn't handle freeways like the Beltway well....

I love my Garmin GPS.  I'd be completely lost without it, especially travling all over the place and living in a new location.  Living in a new place, it's extremely important to have a reliable GPS that can find me the address I need.  The only complaints that I have are sometimes it doesn't take me the most direct route (like around the interstate versus on the interstate) and a few times it can't find the address, but this may be because I haven't updated my map since I got it.  I love the turn by turn directions and that it tells me what street I will turn on and when.

  I love my GPS system. It gets me where I need to go without the mess of a map! All you need to do is type the address of where you are going, and let it guide you. How easy is that!! I am a daily driver, and have two sons, so I stay on the road. I also go to college, so what better gift can I get than this device. I get lost very easy when in places I am not familiar with, so this is a good product for me. Our family loves to take road trips and just go anywhere! My Garmin impresses me and the whole family, it has never taken us to a wrong address since I have had it!

I strongly recommend people...

I got the Garmin GPS for my husband last Christmas -- another guy gadget for his collection.  As for me I use maps...or so I thought.  I was up in the north Goergia mountains and had the device with me.  I got sidetracked and soon became lost.  Lord knows i thought most roads were paved!!! Much to my surprise I ended up on a dirt road with the only inhabitants homes decorated with coaches and wash machines on the front porch!!! I was so glad I had the Garmin with me -- got me out of there in no time with anll my teeth still in my mouth! 

P.S.  No long afterwards it began speaking only in...

I've had my Garmin for a few years now and love it. It's saved me so many times from getting lost. My only complaint is that even when I update it online it doesn't always update.

It is a little slow in getting started and often gets hung up on the aquiring location screen.

It is very user friendly. I was able to figure out how to use it without having to read a huge manual.

I like the features where I can choose categories like shopping, restaurants, or even search by intersection if I don't have an exact address.
