navigator October 24, 2008 This unit is everything you expect from a Garmin GPS. This is my fourth product from this manufacturer and all were excellent experiences.I love the top side controls. Superb costumer support. To use this unit at night for instance is a thrill, to say the least. The regular down loadable Topo maps are all but useless. If you need Topo, than the 24K series is the way to go.However only two or three of such is available and they are prohibitively expensive and slow to appear. A 3D viewing function would be nice to have, but presently its not in the cards. This lack of feature does not in anyway short change this unit.Some claiming the unit is not pocket friendly, but I find these statement very general and lack of useful definition.
The best money can buy! October 20, 2008 I purchased this a little over a year ago and yet I am still learning on a daily basis something new this bugger can do! My only gripe is that I can't seem to figure out how to turn off the "extrapolate data points when satellite lost" function. This would require a small software fix, but probably not even worth Garmin's time. Just have to remember to turn it off when I go inside. When outdoors though, this thing is the best!
best damn unit i have had October 19, 2008 i am very happy with this product, it is VERY accurate and Very dependable, with all the off roading and hunting we do this gps unit is the only essential item for anyone who needs one... from navigating large cities to finding the best trail through the mountians, this unit can do it all...
Good GPS but there is a learning curve. October 19, 2008 This is a great GPS but does require a small learning curve. Buy this unit if you are good with electronics. This may not be a good fit for some older folks. We got this unit for my father and he felt a little overwhelmed by it. Good battery life and rugged. It does exactly what it is supposed to do if you are willing to learn the functions and play with it a little.

I have researched this product extensively per internet and through friends who are using this type of GPS. I decided to buy this unit after getting lost in the forest one day. However, I found that I also needed to purchase topographical software to make it useful for trail hiking. The software is now on its way and I am very keen on installing it soon.
