Garmin 1390T Great GPS! No complaints.

Just bought this GPS from Amazon and I’m having no problems with it at all. No sure why others have a problem with the speaker but it sounds fine to me. I bought this to replace my Nuvi 350 and it’s a major upgrade. The menus are much nicer and I like the Speed Limit [...]

Garmin 1490T Nice upgrade

Garmin 780 Great Device and Easy to Use

The 780 acquired the necessary satellites in just a few minutes when first activated, and does so in less than a minute for subsequent activations.
